Is Kelly Dodd getting ready to walk down the aisle again?
The "Real Housewives of Orange County" star is addressing the rumors that she is engaged to her new boyfriend, CNN correspondent Rick Leventhal.
The two, who have only been linked since this summer, just got back from a romantic European getaway.
Dodd shared a snap from their trip on Wednesday and captioned the sweet shot, "Missing my @rickleventhal see you Monday my lover!"
That's when a fan chimed in to ask if the duo were engaged because days ago, Dodd announced they already had a wedding date picked out.
"ARE YOU ENGAGED YES OR NO??" the fan asked.
That's when Dodd came in and set the record straight. "No babes," she responded.
Dodd sparked engagement rumors when she told fans via Instagram that they were getting married on 10-10-20.
Turns out, that was a joke, but it didn't stop her co-stars like Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson from talking about it on live television.

When the "RHOC" duo were asked about the "engagement" by Andy Cohen, they didn't hold back.
"They just met!" Tamra exclaimed.
"It is ridiculous," Vicki stated. "I don't even think it's been two months."
When Andy asked if they thought the engagement was real, Tamra slammed Dodd saying, "She was probably drunk!"
Vicki responded by stating that her co-star "just wants to get married."
Kelly Dodd met Leventhal through "RHONY" star Ramona Singer at a Hampton's party this summer.
The relationship news comes shortly after she announced her breakup with plastic surgeon Brian Reagan.
Dodd's walked down the aisle once prior. She was married to businessman Michael J. Dodd.
They divorced in 2017 and share one child, a 13-year-old daughter named Jolie.
