“Too Hot to Handle” alum Francesca Farago is engaged to transgender TikTok sensation Jesse “Sulli” Sullivan. 

The reality star announced that Sullivan has been upgraded from boyfriend to fiancé in a celebratory Instagram post shared Tuesday. 

“WE’RE ENGAGED🤍 a glimpse into the most magical night ever💍,” she captioned a carousel of photos from the romantic proposal.

“obsessed with our family.. what is life !!”

Sullivan, 33, dressed in a sharp suit for the occasion, while Farago, 30, donned a sexy champagne-colored gown that showed off her toned back and plenty of side-boob.

Farago began dating Sullivan, 33, in July 2021, but took a break the next year.

While single, Farago filmed another Netflix dating reality series, “Perfect Match.” However, the two got back together once production wrapped. 

In February, Farago — who identifies as queer — told Variety why she and Sullivan constantly share updates on their life together despite a sociopolitical climate that is becoming increasingly anti-LGBTQIA+.

“Especially the way the world is right now, I feel like there is so much going on. It’s crazy, the hate towards our community. The hate is a lot louder than anything else,” she told the outlet. 

“People are still getting death threats and people are still getting like attacked in public and it’s very dangerous for people in our community, especially certain members.”

Farago went on to say that Sullivan — who parents a teen daughter named Arlo — gets “death threats” from transphobic social media users.

“My boyfriend is trans, and he gets death threats on his posts,” Farago added. “And he’s just a nice normal dad. He’s so sweet.”

She elaborated, “To have these aspects of public hate from that just proves that the more representation we have, the more positive it will be because people will see that we’re just normal people.”

Prior to Sullivan, Farago famously dated her “Too Hot to Handle” castmate Harry Jowsey, whom she was briefly engaged to. Her on-and-off romance with the Australian hunk, 25, ended for good in 2021.
