AceShowbiz - Sierra Gates is one step closer to walking down the aisle again. The "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" cast member is engaged to her entrepreneur boyfriend Eric Whitehead after he popped the big question on Christmas.
The businessman got down on one knee in front of their family as they were opening presents on the jolly holiday. They donned matching festive pajamas with Sierra sitting cross-legged on the floor near a Christmas tree.
"I said YES omg @e_whitehead365 I love you I love you I love you Omgggg," she exclaimed on Instagram while showing off her massive rock. "God is So Amazing! It's been 1 whole year and God knew What he was doing!"
"@e_whitehead365 you was made for me," the bride-to-be said of her new fiance before mentioning the jeweler who helped him make the ring for her, "Y'all tricked me thank you!"
The VH1 reality television star started dating Eric Whitehead following her on-and-off relationship with rapper BK Brasco. She called things off, just one week after saying yes to his marriage proposal in December 2020.
Sierra's upcoming wedding to Eric will be her second one. She was previously married to Rod "Shooter" Gates but it ended following his alleged affair with her assistant. The former couple share a son. She also has an older daughter from a previous relationship.
Sierra and Eric have been offering glimpses of the dynamics in their relationship during their appearance on the VH1 show. Before their engagement, they talked about having kids as they moved in together.
She previously said she trusted his taste when it came to decorating the house they lived in, "The crazy part about it is that I'm a simple person in this home decor situation. I need a bed, a sofa, and a place to make money. He has a lot of ideas. So I'm just letting him do him. He's definitely in control."
