Yvette Nicole Brown just announced her engagement to fellow actor Anthony Davis!

The Community star, 52, revealed that she is engaged to actor Anthony Davis while co-hosting The View on Tuesday.

"I have some news, and I heard that The View is the place to announce things like this. I'm engaged," she gushed.

The beaming comedic actress flashed a huge, heartwarming, happy smile before she looked across the room and continued showing off her ring.

She continued: "And he's here! He's here! That's Tony," pointing to her fiancé, who was seated in the audience.

Brown told The View‘s co-hosts that she and Davis became “platonic friends” in their 20s after meeting at their church’s acting classes. She noted that Davis was married at the time.

Anthony couldn't hold in his excitement as he gushed: "She's just the most beautiful person in the world."

Co-host Sunny Hostin added, "You are one lucky man," before asking the couple how they met.

The pair met many years ago but only reconnected fairly recently and that's when sparks flew.

The "Drake and Josh" alum explained that Davis reached out in 2021 after her mother died.

"Then he found me," she said, adding: "After he divorced."

The Act Your Age star feels like her late mother guided Anthony to her.

"I feel like my mom and his mom kind of did it," she explained. "He's just wonderful … he's a nice man, you guys. He's a nice, kind, loving man."

Congratulations!
