Wearing the bauble at Friday's Makeup Forever event (Ricci helped design the Makeup Forever Remix bag), she finally fessed up to Us that she and her man got engaged last fall. "Yeah," the Addams Family alum confirmed, accepting congrats from Us Weekly's reporter Brody Brown. "[We got engaged] a couple months back."

Despite the happy news, Ricci and her man don't have any specific plans for Feb. 14. "Honestly, I was trying to think of that before, I can't remember' a single Valentine's Day!" she said, laughing. "I personally just don't think I've ever made a big deal about Valentine's Day. I mean. I like to get like flowers."

"I worked so much last year that I just really wanted to have some time off to just kind of live," she explained. "You kind of need to take time to be a real person."
