Love Is Blind star Shaina Hurley is engaged again, and it looks like this guy might have a better chance than her ex-fiance Kyle Abrams.

Hurley reportedly said "yes" to her current boyfriend Christos Lardakis, whom she introduced to her followers on Instagram just a few days ago.

Hurley previously got engaged to Abrams on season two of the Netflix show, but their relationship quickly unravelled after they met in person. She also seemed to have a thing for Shayne Jansen on the show, who ended up getting engaged to Natalie Lee.

People broke the story of the engagement, reporting that Lardakis proposed to Hurley on March 10 and that they plan to get married in Greece this summer.

Lardakis, who is Greek, is the founder and CEO of Kanela Breakfast Club, a Greek American breakfast eatery in Chicago. According to Us Weekly, he used to own upscale sports bar Municipal Bar + Dining Co., so he's apparently been in the hospitality industry for a while.

Lardakis also works in general contracting for residential and commercial buildings with his company CL Development, according to his LinkedIn profile.

One day before news broke of the engagement, Hurley posted a photo on Instagram of herself and her fiancé in Mykonos.

"My ride or die forever," she wrote in the caption along with an infinity symbol, a heart on fire emoji and a cross.

"Moves quick," one person commented.

"Show was filmed a year ago," Hurley wrote in response to the comment.

The reality star has limited the comments on her account due to the negative backlash she received after her time on Love Is Blind.

A source told People that the 32-year-old hairstylist and her Greek beau have been dating for almost a year.

"He has stood by her side through all of the Love Is Blind drama and has been her steady in the storm," they told the outlet.

Hurley connected with Abrams and Jansen in the early blind-date stage of the show. She ended up getting engaged to Abrams, but she later called it off before exiting the show.

In the reunion episode, Hurley expressed regret for saying yes to Abrams' proposal as well as for leading him on throughout the show.

Abrams also seems to have moved on and has been teasing a possible relationship with Deepti Vempati, one of the other Love Is Blind participants who didn't go through with her wedding.
