Network star Ty Pennington proposed to his girlfriend Kellee Merrell Wednesday, and she said yes!
“It’s the ‘yes’ for me…,” the 56-year-old “Ty Breaker” star captioned an Instagram photo of 33-year-old Merrell’s left hand as she wore a teardrop-shaped ring.
A rep for the “Trading Spaces” alum told People that Pennington proposed to the Canadian social media manager over morning coffee on the dock of his home in Palm Coast, Florida.
The couple met in 2010 while Pennington filmed a TV show in Toronto, staying connected over the years through mutual friends. They grew closer after reconnecting in early 2020 and subsequently choosing to quarantine together.
The happy couple is in the middle of renovating their dream home, which they recently purchased together in Savannah, Georgia.
Pennington previously dated actress Andrea Bock, whom the HGTV star referred to as a “great friend” when asked about his ex just last month.
