Teen Mom OG star Maci Bookout has finally gotten what she's been waiting for -- an engagement ring from boyfriend Taylor McKinney.

Bookout made the announcement by sharing an Instagram photo Tuesday of the couple kissing on the beach.
"Well y'all, my best friend asked me to marry him! I'm one lucky lady, I love you T! @tmon3yyy," Bookout, 24, captioned the cute picture.
McKinney's choice of ring was not traditional, as the sparkler appears to be a series of bands with one big diamond in the center.
Bookout and her Teen Mom OG co-stars Farrah Abraham, Amber Portwood and Catelynn Lowell celebrated the big news this past weekend in Los Angeles, according to Us Weekly, as the group filmed the series' reunion special and then had a wrap party which turned into an engagement party.

"All the other girls were so happy for Maci, and everyone was so happy to celebrate together," a source told Us.
Bookout and McKinney, 26, live together in Tennessee and have dated since 2012. Not only did they buy a house together, they also share a seven-month-old daughter named Jayde Carter.
Because the couple has basically been committed to each other in every sense of the word, Bookout wasn't sure why her man was dragging his feet with the marriage proposal.
"It's so to the point where I'm like, 'Really, what is the deal?'" the reality TV star and Bulletproof author, who also has a seven-year-old son Bentley with ex Ryan Edwards, told the magazine last month.
"Marriage is something I want in my life. In my opinion -- and I think Taylor would agree -- we pretty much are already married. So it's kind of like, 'All right, what are we waiting on?' I'm confused... [We] make a really good team. I don't think we would be able to do everything we have going on if we didn't have each other."
