Here’s hoping the engagement goes better than the Bravo-lebrity’s first one to RHOC co-star Slade Smiley, which ended in 2008 after just two years.

Jo and Peirson will relive the ill-fated romance all over again when they react to old episodes of her reality show on her YouTube vlog.

In January, De La Rosa claimed on Behind The Velvet Rope that her 47-year-old ex-fiancé had ‘bought our way into being a part of a cast’ through a charity event in 2006.
