Lyons initially announced that she was in a relationship with Bird during an interview with the New York Times.

On Sunday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live!, Lyons played it coy with Andy Cohen when he quizzed her on whether she was engaged – after the star posted a couple’s snap with Bird flashing her ring as the pair lay naked in bed,

Cohen said: ‘I wanna say congratulations because I think you’re engaged, but are you engaged?’

Lyons responded: ‘So basically, here’s the story. My girlfriend, who I adore, kept telling me that I had to button my shirt, and I said ‘If you want me to button my shirt, you have to put a ring on it.

‘We’re just really happy and she gave me the ring that I wanted.’

Asked again if she’s engaged, Lyons responded that she’s ‘very happy.’
