Drop Dead Diva star Jackson Hurst is engaged to his longtime girlfriend, actress Stacy Stas.

The actor popped the question after four and a half years at the spot where they had their first date in Los Angeles' Griffith Park.

He tells E! Online, "I wanted to take back to where it all began. I went back with another buddy and staked out and found a beautiful creek bed with ivy and flowers. We set up the picnic. And this time I got good sushi cause I was no longer broke and some nice champagne. We set up candles everywhere."

However, the proposal didn't come as a huge surprise to Stas - he had treated her to a manicure days before, a personal request she asked for if he was ever to get down on one knee.

She adds, "I kind of knew it was coming. I had told him a while ago that whenever you are going to do it, can you just make sure my nails look good. A few days before, he was like 'Do you think you want to get a manicure?' Even before he started into it, I started crying."
