“A wedding isn’t far off that’s his promise ring, whatever you want to call it,” the pal tells OK!. “It’s the ring he gave her when he said he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her — and that he’d wait until Maci wants to get married, for as long as it took.”
Why wait to wed? One insider suggests that for a time. Maci, 20, was worried that marrying might hurt her ex Ryan Edwards, 23, father of her 2-year-old son, Bentley.
