Given the fact that Vanessa Lachey has openly admitted to issuing a final proposition to Nick Lachey after they were dating for five years and he had no plans to propose, the couple were the perfect pick to host Netflix’s The Ultimatum.
“I finally said, ‘What are we doing?'” Vanessa shared during the premiere episode of the reality series. “I have now moved in with him. I renovated his entire bachelor pad. There was a bar in the pool. I’m like, ‘Whatever you want.’ Now I want kids in the pool. So that’s when I started the dance [waves ring finger in the air].”
And, initially, Nick chose to move on rather than marry, with the pair breaking up for a short period of time, in which they each saw one other person.
“It took us splitting up for about a month and then coming back and him saying, I want to make this work,'” Vanessa told E! News at the 2022 premiere of The Ultimatum. “He was the one who suggested couple’s therapy.”
After reconciling in 2009, the pair got married in 2011.
