Actress Keisha Knight Pulliam Engaged to Actor Brad James

In a PEOPLE exclusive, actress Keisha Knight Pulliam says that she said YES to actor Brad James‘ proposal earlier this month in Atlanta with a custom diamond eternity band made by Fevzi, of Aydin Jewelers.

The newly engaged couple had a “magical, intimate, COVID compliant evening filled with love” event where they celebrated with family and Pulliam’s 3-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, courtesy of event planner Scoobie West.

Her rep said, “Keisha and Brad are excited to find their happily ever after.”

Just months after her June 2016 wedding, Pulliam split from her former NFL star husband Ed Hartwell. Shortly after, she began dating James after the two met on the set of the TV movie Pride and Prejudice: Atlanta.

“Honestly, we just hit it off,” Pulliam said when she first met her fiancé James. “We had a lot of downtime, there was a lot going on filming that project. So there were times where we would all be sitting in the cast seats or the van just talking.” The two exchanged numbers, and the rest is history.”

James, who is best known for his role as Todd in Tyler Perry’s sitcom For Better or For Worse, has also appeared on Netflix’s Outer Banks and the UMC series A House Divided.
