Javi Marroquin is at it again with the proposals. This time, he proposed to girlfriend and baby mama Lauren Comeau!
He teased us on Instagram about the impending proposal, but we weren't sure if it was too good to be true! Looks like we were wrong, and the two are tying the knot.
Keep reading for all the details on this engagement.
Looks like it’s official, Javi Marroquin and Lauren Comeau are getting married! The couple announced their engagement Instagram, and saying they’re excited is an understatement.
Last year, not only did Kailyn Lowry’s baby daddy settle down with another woman, he welcomed another baby with her! Lauren revealed the infant’s name to Radar Online back in November.
The couple named their firstborn Eli Joseph. “Joseph after my dad, who goes by Joe, and my grandfather’s middle name,” the first-time mom explained.
Javi has been keeping busy, not only with his new family but with other business endeavors as well. Last September, Javi announced that he would be opening his own CrossFit gym. And in the past few months, the big day finally came!
“I’m so excited I couldn’t sleep so I’m on my way to MY gym to workout,” he wrote on Twitter on January 1st. “It’s really hitting me that it’s finally here. I’ve been talking about this for years and been working on it since the end of August and it’s here.”
The Teen Mom 2 star added, “Truly blessed and grateful. Crossfit Killshot is here and ready to make some noise!!!”
Hopefully Javi is saving his crossfit money, because the couple has a wedding to plan.
Javi’s Instagram post featured a lengthy caption, and spoke The Hollywood Gossip about his proposal.
“I asked my best friend to marry me…Our sleepless (mainly yours) nights…our endless laughs…and our countless jokes to each other now can be forever,” he wrote on Instagram. “Without you, our gym wouldn’t be possible. Without you we wouldn’t have a place to call home. Most importantly, without you, we wouldn’t be complete.”
“Thank you for being the greatest mom to Eli and now (soon to be) stepmom to Lincoln. I feared not finding someone that would love me and linc the way you do,” he continued. “Never had I questioned that with you. Thank you for everything you do for this family. I can’t believe I’m this lucky.”
Lauren’s Instagram featured the same photo, and a revealing caption as well!
“The perfect day, with the perfect proposal. I couldn’t have asked for anything more than walking the waterfront of my hometown with just my boys and my cousin stalking us in the trees,” she said in her caption. “I blow almost every surprise and this one got me, I didn’t see it coming…even when Linc spotted my cousin hiding.”
“Thank you my love for this day, for our life, I’m ready for whatever this crazy life throws at us as long as I got you, here’s to forever,” she concluded.
In his interview with Radar Online, Javi said he asked Lauren’s father for approval. “Her dad did come visit and we had a good talk,” he said. “The approval is stamped, sealed and mailed off!”
Fans on reddit decided to compare the various engagements rings that Javi used to propose to Kailyn, Briana, and Lauren. Some used the forum to wish the couple well, and others used it to bash the double halo cut of the ring.
“I think halos and especially double halos are among the least desirable,” wrote one user.
“I’m not really digging that thick halo..but maybe a clearer picture will show that it’s not diamond dust. Wishful thinking,” said another user.
“Javi has TERRIBLE taste in jewelry. But that being said I hope lauren is happy with it because that’s all that matters,” wrote a third.
Fans are also unhappy with the diamond industry as a whole.
“I never f***ing notice diamonds [sic] rings…Worse, that Europeans are robbing Africa of it’s [sic] natural resources,” wrote a very angry reddit user.
“I think diamonds and expensive jewelry are f***king stupid and that anyone who would pay thousands of dollars for a shiny rock is equally as stupid,” replied another.
Well ok then! It honestly doesn’t matter what people think, because this couple is engaged regardless.
Javi spoke to Radar back when he was ring shopping. “I know what type of ring she likes,” he said. “I’m creating a custom piece.”
So the haters can back off, because he knows what his girl wanted in an engagement ring.
And regarding their plans to have another kid, he said, “We’re looking at November, December or January!”
