Now, after returning from a romantic two-week island vacation, Jakes all set to pop the question. Before he can ask, though, Annie lets loose on Jake for his inability to commit. She was expecting him to put a ring on it in paradise and now Jakes perfect proposal is ruined. Not wanting to spend the next 60 years talking about that mess of a proposal, Jake and Annie decide to hold off on the engagement until they can do it right.

The only thing we know for sure is these two are destined to be together whether they can get it together or not.
