Chaz Bono and Jennifer Elia are engaged. The former DWTS celeb presented his longtime girlfriend with an engagement sparkler while on a birthday trip to Seattle.

The big moment was captured on camera and will be televised on his show Being Chaz when the episode airs November 27 on the OWN network.

Elia and Bono were a couple long before he underwent transgender reassignment surgery. She admits the change in their status was difficult but she held out hope that they would eventually marry.

Chaz revealed, “We’ve been engaged for two years, and we’ve had to put things on hold. I wanted to pick a special place to give her a special birthday present.”

Jennifer gushed, “Wow, it’s gorgeous – thank you so much. It’s stunning. It’s huge. What he did was romantic. Who would have thought Seattle would be so special?”
