Though all parties can agree that Kelly's ring is a real stunner, the real-estate pro does have one issue with her diamond-studded band. "It's too big for my skinny little finger," she laughed on Access Hollywood, holding her hand up for all to see. But she did concede that the ring is "so pretty," before revealing that the diamond isn't the only thing that's new in her life. 

"The day before the [RHUGT] trip, my oldest daughter moved out into her apartment and she's graduated from college," Kelly shared, referring to her eldest daughter, Sea. Previously, Kelly had shared that Sea was working on a new book with Assouline called Oceans.

"She has a great new job," Kelly continued. "My youngest daughter [Teddy] moved in with her roommates, and then I moved out of my apartment because I rented my apartment, so all three of us moved out the day before I got on the plane." 

In an Instagram Story from June 6, Kelly shared a video of herself helping her 22-year-old daughter, Teddy Bensimon, pack up for the big move. "It is time for Teddy to move!" she announced, showing Teddy as she emptied some drawers. The real-estate broker added: "I don't know if this apartment's gonna fit all this stuff! I don't know how it's going to work."

Who is Scott Litner? 

Kelly shared in July 2023 that she had gotten engaged to Scott Litner after about a year of dating. She told E! News on July 10: "I never thought that I could be so happy at this stage in my life, this is truly a new beginning. We have a romance that people write novels about." 

"He's just a really genuine, nice, kind person. He has a beautiful family, and is great with my girls, and is just a very grounded. You know, I'm a very grounded girl — I just have ungrounded tendencies. But I typically have my feet on the ground, and he does too. So we just get along really, really well,” the model told PEOPLE magazine in December 2023. "When I first met him, I didn’t even say anything. I was speechless — which is not like me, I always have something to say. But he blew me away. He’s just a really special human."
