Paris Hilton announced on Wednesday – her 40th birthday – that she was engaged to her boyfriend just over a year ago, Carter Reum.

The socialite turned reality star turned DJ shared images in which she was in a white dress hugging Carter, who also wore white, as she raised her left hand to show off her emerald-cut engagement ring by Jean Dousset, great-grandson of Louis Cartier.

The two were on a beach at sunset with clear clouds in the background. ‘When you find your soul mate, you don’t just know that. You feel it, ‘shared the beauty on her Instagram page. She also posted photos of the proposal.

The Simple Life star added: ‘My love and I have been together since our first date and, for my birthday, he organized a special trip to tropical paradise.’

Then she detailed the proposal: ‘As we were walking to dinner on the beach, Carter took us to a hut adorned with flowers and knelt down.

‘I said yes, yes forever. There is no one I would rather stay with forever. ✨. ‘She ended with:’ A toast to love – the eternal type ‘.

In the photos, Carter can be seen kneeling with the ring box open. He then pulls her into his arms and kisses his future wife while she wears sunglasses.

On the Paris website she shared 23 images of the proposal that appeared to be a well-planned event.

Paris was seen in her diving dress, which had a high slit that showed off her legs. And Carter was elegant in a suit.

They were spotted on the beach, as well as in a wooden hut before walking on the beach.

Also present was Paris’s sister, Nicky Hilton, and her husband for six years, James Rithschild. Brother Barron Hilton II was also there and had his wife by his side for almost three years, Tessa Gräfin von Walderdorff.

And there were several members of Reum’s family, including his mother Sherry Reum, as well as his brother Courtney Reum.

“I’m excited for our next chapter,” she told People.

Reum, also 40, proposed on February 13, during a vacation on a private island, while celebrating Hilton’s 40th birthday.

According to People, she wore a Retrofete dress and a Loschy crown.

Paris also shared with People: ‘The past year with COVID has accelerated many things. As someone who traveled constantly, I had the chance to stay home and reevaluate what was important to me. My relationship and the time I spent with Carter was a gift.

‘I’m excited for our next chapter.’

Her fiancé Reum then said: ‘I had the unique opportunity to see the real Paris daily, just the two of us for the past 15 months and I couldn’t be more excited and lucky to have you as my future wife and partner.

“She shines with her kindness, work ethic, authenticity and her voice in making the world a better place and she will do the same as a future mother and wife.”

Vogue shared on her Instagram page at 6 am: ‘@parishilton is engaged to @carterreum_official! Touch the link in our biography for an exclusive view of Reum’s proposal – and the emerald cut ring. ‘They also shared a photo of Kyle Richards’ niece with Reum.

‘Paris is so excited, and her friends and family are thrilled for her. Carter is a great guy and after all she’s been through, the kind of steady love he brings into her life is what she deserves.

“She’s sure it’s him,” a source told People.

Reum studied at Columbia University and became an entrepreneur who founded VEEV Spirits with Brother Courtney.

This happened after Hilton starred with Carter in a new music video for his 2006 song, Heartbeat. The star revealed to Paper on Friday that he was inspired to revisit the song amid the romance with the businessman.

‘I have heard [her sole studio album Paris] a lot with my boyfriend. In 2006, I didn’t even know what love was, but the words for [Heartbeat] finally has meaning, ‘she revealed.

‘My boyfriend is not the type of guy to appear in a video,’ said Paris of Carter’s brief appearance.

‘He’s a businessman and hates the spotlight. He’s not that kind of person. I asked Carter, “I know you would never do this, but it would mean a lot to me. We will shoot you in the back. Obviously, there is no one I would rather do this with, the music was literally meant for me and you.” said: ‘Yes’, and I was very happy,’ she recalled.
