"Basketball Wives LA" star Draya Michele and Orlando Scandrick have an on-off relationship. Back in June, Scandrick proposed to Michele, but after a month, the couple called things off. Now, they are reportedly back together again. 

According to TMZ, after months of drama that included makeups and breakups and restraining orders, Michele told them that they are in a "good place" right now and that they have decided to be engaged again. But she reportedly said that their reconciliation doesn't mean that they're about to be wed soon. The couple has decided to take things slowly and is going to practice being engaged for a year before having any wedding plans. 

Earlier this month, Michele went on the "Big Boy's Neighborhood" radio show to explain what caused their most recent breakup last month. She said that they had a falling out because she put a pair of Scandrick's expensive shoes in the pool. 

"He's a shoe guy, I put the shoes in the pool. I put the Yeezys in the pool," she said. 

When asked whether she thinks that she's hard to be in a relationship with, Michele said yes, saying, "I think so. It takes a certain kind of man to handle me."

But she said that Scandrick is that kind of man, mentioning that they've been together for two and a half years and that for him to still be in a relationship with her "says something about his character." 

It was earlier reported that Michele's reality career has been one of the major issues between her and her fiancé, but in an interview with Madame Noire on Wednesday, Aug. 19, the star hinted that she might be ready to leave the VH1 reality show. 

"I'm closer to chucking the deuces," she told the website. "I feel like I've outgrown the show. I just don't want to argue with people anymore."
