People was first to report the news.

Confirmation of the couple's engagement comes just one day after Hurley went Instagram official with Lardakis, sharing snaps from their recent getaway to Mykonos.

"My ride or die forever ♾ ❤️‍🔥 ✞," the 32-year-old captioned the loved-up pics of the pair.

Hurley appeared on season 2 of the Netflix dating series, where she famously made a connection with both Kyle Abrams and Shayne Jansen in the pods. Hurley got engaged to Abrams, but after accepting his proposal (with his mother's engagement ring) she revealed that she still had feelings for Jansen.

When Shaina and Kyle tried to make things work in Mexico, she quickly decided that their religious differences were too great -- she's Christian and he's an atheist -- and packed up and left. Kyle tried to give it another go in Chicago only to have that attempt crumble in an awkward meeting with Shaina's family.

Hurley and Abrams called it quits after leaving the pods, and Jansen went on to try to make it work with Natalie Lee. Jansen and Lee eventually split.

During the reunion special, which aired on the streamer earlier this month, Hurley apologized to Abrams for letting their relationship continue longer than it should have.

"Honestly, looking back on it, I should have said no right away to you. 100 percent," she told her former fiancé. "I actually do take full ownership. I could have avoided a whole bunch of drama and mess, 100 percent. And I'm owning that."

"I'm really sorry that it was led on more than it should have been," Hurley added,

Hurley echoed a similar sentiment when speaking to ET, telling us that her biggest regret during time on the dating series was accepting Abrams' proposal.

"That's where I completely own it. At the end of the day, I should have said, 'No,' and stuck to my gut and I didn't," she said. "I completely regret that because I could have avoided a lot further messiness and drama. I'm working on it. And it goes back to my people-pleasing and I didn't want to hurt him. And at the end of the day, he ended up getting hurt." 

Hurley first revealed that she was dating someone new during a March 2 episode of The Viall Files podcast.

"I’m actually in a relationship, it’s pretty serious, I’m very happy," Hurley told Viall. "He’s been great throughout the whole situation. I’m happy."
