But Reid insists they have no plans to wed in the near future, confessing the big jewel was just a genero us birthday gift from her lover.

She tells People.com, "I got a beautiful ring from my boyfriend for my birthday last weekend. But we're not engaged... yet!"

Reid was previously engaged to TV host Carson Daly.
