daughter and her fiancé have called off their engagement – just two months after sharing news of the proposal.
The Real Housewives of New York City alum, 60, confirmed the news via a statement given to Page Six on Thursday, October 31.
“After much reflection, [they have] made the difficult decision to end their engagement,” the statement read. “And as a family, we are focused on supporting [Ally] through this time. We appreciate your understanding and request privacy on this personal matter.”
Fans previously began to speculate the couple – who had been dating since January 2022 – had called it quits after several clips posted by Shaprio, 31, via TikTok hinted it was over.
In one clip, Shapiro showed Zarin helping her move into a studio apartment.
“When you don’t realize how much you needed your parents until they drop everything for you,” she captioned the post.
Another featured Shapiro visibly not wearing her engagement ring while mouthing the lyrics to Gracie Abrams’ song, “That’s So True.”
The news comes after Shapiro revealed via Instagram in August that Bilfeld had popped the question while the couple were on vacation in Europe.
She made the announcement with a series of photos via her Instagram story while showing off her engagement ring.
As well as displaying her engagement ring prominently via her Instagram Stories, Shapiro shared details of the proposal – including the fact she had no idea it was coming.
In one of the posts, Shapiro sips a cocktail, seemingly unaware her boyfriend was about to get down on one knee.
“5 min before i was getting proposed to and it was pouring rain and i was drinking my spritz 😂😂😂 completely clueless 😂😂😂😂😂,” she captioned the post.
At the time, Zarin was also on vacation at the same place with her boyfriend, , and witnessed her daughter’s proposal, which took place at Beach Club Gran Folies in Islas Baleares.
Zarin later shared her excitement about the engagement via an Instagram post.
“I am speechless!” she wrote “Gary, Ally and Jordan and I have spent the last week on a Celebrity Cruise in Europe and we get off tomorrow. After lunch, Jordan asked Ally to go for a walk on the beach.. mind you after it poured for 30 minutes. Gary and I are just waiting for the check to come. We hear cheering and clapping and I started clapping and walk over to see over the railing and guess who just got engaged???”
Shapiro is the daughter of Zarin and ex-husband , whom she was married to from 1987 to 1998.
