Evelyn Lozada has found her king.

The Marcus EriksonQueens Court star found happily ever after on the Peacock dating series and is now engaged to finalist LaVon Lewis. In fact, the couple reached that relationship milestone in December on an already special day: Evelyn's 47th birthday. 

"I didn't know that he was going to propose that day," Evelyn told People in an interview published March 16. "I didn't know what I was walking into. He was being very sneaky and, in all honesty, I was a little irritated because I'm such an alpha female and I'm kind of like, why do I have to pack? Why do I have to do this? It was really, really difficult for me to just let go and allow him to do his thing."

LaVon, 42, got down on one knee in front of their friends and family. But as he admitted, getting the Basketball Wives alum to the sweet gathering in Los Angeles was easier said than done.

"The thing about Evelyn is, it is very hard to surprise her," he explained. "I told her to pack her bags, we're going somewhere. She was blindfolded until she got to the front door. She walked in to about 20 close friends and family and the big 'marry me' letters, roses on the ground, things like that."

Evelyn and LaVon aren't the only love story to emerge from Queens Court, which also saw Nivea and Tamar Braxton looking for another shot at love. Tamar got engaged to finalist Jeremy "JR" Robinson on the finale.

Tamar told him on the episode, "I prayed for somebody to understand me and not look at me and my flaws and just accept me for who I am. And then I met you. And then I saw every single thing that I ever prayed for as a child."
