New year, new ring!

Congratulations are in order for Danielle Brooks who got engaged to her boyfriend Dennis Gelin just before 2020 began.

"I never thought one of the best days of my year would happen the last week of the year," the Orange Is the New Black star shared on Instagram with her fans and followers. "I get to marry my best friend. We're ENGAGED!! So excited to become your wife. D&D until the end."

In her announcement, the actress showed off her brand-new piece of bling. And yes, the couple enjoyed a romantic dance after the proposal happened.

"We believe Danielle's classically beautiful ring features an estimated 1.5-1.75 carat round solitaire diamond set on a diamond-adorned white gold or platinum band," Kathryn Money, VP of Strategy & Merchandising for Brilliant Earth, estimated to E! News.
