Hayden Panettiere appeared on Good Morning America on Wednesday, and the 24-year-old Nashville starlet showed off her gorgeous diamond engagement ring before taping her interview.

Later on Hayden appeared on Live With Kelly & Michael with a boa constrictor around her neck, but rather than commenting on the massive reptile, host Kelly Ripa joked, "I'm sort of distracted, not just by the snake, but there's a very large diamond ring on your finger. I'm not sure if you want to announce anything … does that signify anything, is that a promise of something?"

Panettiere said that it "might" mean something, but when Ripa straight up asked the actress if she was engaged to longtime beau Wladimir Klitschko, Panettiere finally replied, "I am!"

Panettiere and Klitschko met in 2009 and dated for two years before splitting up, but the two got back together this spring and were rumored to be engaged, though she wouldn't confirm it.
