Is Ariana Madix engaged to Daniel Wai?
Before heading to Turks & Caicos for a romantic getaway with her longtime boyfriend and their friends, the 40-year-old Vanderpump Rules alum sparked rumors of a potential engagement to Daniel, 42, on the red carpet as she attended the premiere of Wuthering Heights at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California, last Wednesday.
“Is she possibly engaged? Also damn,” Bravo Snark Side wrote on Instagram in the caption of a series of photos on January 29, one of which highlighted a potential engagement ring on her ring finger.

Following the appearance, Ariana was spotted hitting the beach with Katie Maloney, 39, and her boyfriend, Nick Martin, 43, whom she’s been dating since late 2024. And in one photo shared by Quickies founder Bailey Stanworth, 35, the couple, who have been dating since spring 2023, shortly after Ariana’s split from Tom Sandoval, 43, looked quite cozy as they enjoyed a kiss in a cabana at the Villa Paradiso Del Mar resort.
In December 2024, after previously suggesting that she wasn’t interested in getting married or having kids, Ariana admitted to Us Weekly that she was no longer completely opposed to the idea.
She also gushed over their relationship.
“I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who feels the way about me that Daniel feels. He thinks I am the most beautiful person in the world, the funniest person in the world, the smartest,” she shared. “He’s constantly telling me how smart I am and how much he believes in me, and I just feel like having that kind of partner makes everything feel so easy. I never feel stressed. I never feel worried, and he’s always reassuring me, and it feels really nice.”
Ariana Madix was featured in a full-time role on Vanderpump Rules from season three through season 11 and has been hosting Love Island USA since season six.
