'I thought you were engaged!' The Bachelor's Nikki Gogan sends fans into overdrive as she shares a snap of her new ring
She has been dating Perth-based architect, Bill Coe, for approximately a year.
And on Wednesday, former Bachelor star Nikki Gogan sparked engagement speculation when she shared a photo of a ring on her finger.
However, it turns out that the 31-year-old wasn't wearing an engagement ring, which she clarified in her Instagram post.

The jewellery was actually a 'payment ring' from Bank West that allows the wearer to purchase items without their ATM or credit card.

Naturally, the former reality star's fans were confused by the post, with some suspecting that she was getting ready to walk down the aisle with Bill.

Despite no engagement just yet, it seems that the blonde has finally found the man of her dreams after having her heart broken on The Bachelor in 2016.
Nikki made her relationship with Bill 'Instagram official' in June of last year, sharing a romantic post on her 31st birthday.

While Nikki's Instagram profile markets her as a licensed real estate agent, Bill is a director at an architecture company.
She placed runner-up on the season behind Alex Nation - who later broke up with Bachelor Richie Strahan after a few months.
Nikki turned down an offer to appear on Bachelor in Paradise, saying she preferred to stay out of the spotlight.
