Derek and Hayley, 25, met on Dancing with the Stars and have been linked for over three years, reportedly starting in 2015. The couple has been going strong and supporting each other ever since.
Last month, for example, Hayley stayed by Derek's side in the hospital when he had to undergo emergency surgery on his appendix.
Derek insisted in 2017 he didn't feel any pressure to tie the knot and have children given he comes from such a big family.
"Not at all!" Derek had explained to Us at the time. "Oh, no. If anything, [we have] a lot of [family], there's like 55 nieces and nephews. We got plenty, we're fine!"
