Hough proposed to Erbert with a flawless oval diamond, set in platinum, with a pave band and hidden halo from Paris Jewellers.

"Derek cared deeply about designing a ring that was extraordinary to honor this new journey with Hayley," Chau Lui, Co-owner Paris Jewellers, said in a statement to "Good Morning America."

"It was important to Derek that the diamond was rare and had tremendous sparkle, fire and brilliance; just like their love," the statement continued. "He wanted Hayley to be wow'd every time she looked at it. Throughout the entire process, Derek's love for Hayley always shone through. It was a true pleasure to work with Derek to design this ring."

The couple's post was flooded with well-wishes and congratulatory remarks from friends, family and fans.
