The View's Sherri Shepherd Is Engaged
Sherri Shepherd
Sherri Shepherd is engaged to TV writer Lamar Sally, People reports.
Sally, who wrote for the series Rodney, popped the question the day after Christmas in an elaborate proposal.
According to Shepherd's rep, after returning from a trip to San Diego, "Sherri was surprised to find their accommodations had been decorated with lights by one of Sal's best friends, her dog was wearing a Santa beard and hat, and, in the middle of a dish of Sherri's favorite but forbidden M&M's (she is diabetic), was a tiny little box."

Shepherd, 43, will discuss the engagement when The View returns on Jan. 10.
