Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald take photos, share engagement ring

For months, everyone has been speculating and wishing that "19 Kids and Counting" star Jessa Duggar would finally get engaged to her boyfriend Ben Seewald.

It is no longer a rumor and no longer just a wish, the couple is finally engaged!

Jessa couldn't wait to share the news with the world through her social media accounts. Who wouldn't be? The love of her life proposed to her and this pushes her one step closer to finally becoming Jessa Seewald, which is her Instagram handle by the way.

Jessa shared a teaser photo of the engagement ring on her Instagram account. The photo showed Jessa's palm with the back of the ring showing. Sources close to Jessa confirmed that there is indeed a rock in front of the ring.

It was captioned "Y'all! I still can't believe it! I'm engaged to the most amazing guy on Earth! Every time I look down at the ring on my finger... it takes my breath away! I love you!"

Ben planned the proposal for months. He sought the help of close friends and thought about a unique way to propose to the lovely Jessa. What did he finally decide to do? A scavenger hunt using tons of memories from their relationship as clues.

"With every clue, I was really excited, but I was really nervous," Jessa said. She probably knew that there was a special prize at the end of the hunt.

Just last week, the couple enjoyed their 11 month anniversary where Jessa shared photos of Ben's gifts to her—a very sweet letter and a pearl bracelet.

It was captioned "Eleven monthsary gift Y'all, my guy is seriously the most romantic ever! I love you @ben_seewald!!!"

Jessa's parents are just as excited for the second engagement and wedding in the family this year.

Michelle Duggar said "We're so excited for them. We are absolutely thrilled!"
