Bride-to-be Nikki Reed is sporting some new bling!

The 26-year-old Twilight alum and singer was seen on Monday jogging with what appears to be two separate sparkling diamond eternity bands or a two-part band on her ring finger in Atlanta, where new fiancé Ian Somerhalder, 36, has a home and films The Vampire Diaries, photos released on Thursday showed. The two got engaged after dating for six months, E! News confirmed two weeks ago.

The two had worked out together at a gym earlier on Monday and "seemed really happy and were affectionate with one another," an eyewitness told E! News, adding that Reed later went on a jog by herself, for about an hour, and was heard singing out loud.

Earlier this month, Reed was seen wearing two identical eternity bands on her right hand while attending the InStyle and Warner Bros post-2015 Golden Globes party with her beau.

At the 2015 Catdance Film Festival this past weekend, Reed played coy when asked by E! News about wedding planning.

This will mark the first marriage for Solmerhalder and the second for the actress, who was married to fellow singer and American Idol alum Paul McDonald, 30, for almost three years. While she was both engaged to him, the actress also sported an eternity band on her ring finger.

Years later, she was seen sporting a ring with several larger diamonds.

Their divorce was finalized earlier this month, about two weeks after news about Reed's engagement to Somerhalder was confirmed.

She and McDonald have no children. Reed and Somerhalder, both animal rights activists, are raising a slew of adopted pets together.

She joked to E! News that "animals are great training," adding, "You certainly learn how to clean up after yourself and pick up a lot of poop."
