Naturally, Alaina was not expecting the proposal. However, she informed reporters that after Rose gave her a promise ring, he told her, “hopefully one day I can get you the real thing.” The 2008-09 Rookie of the Year winner surprised the love of his life.

I will always love you becuz you go above and beyond. We built a beautiful family and a unbreakable bond. Thank you Queen.”

The couple has been dating since 2012, back when Rose played for the Chicago Bulls. The guard was drafted first overall by the organization in the 2008 NBA Draft. In 2018, they had one daughter together named Layla. Derrick also turned 33-years-old nine days ago.

A year later, they also welcomed London, their only son. Furthermore, Alaina was born in Chicago, Illinois. She works as an Instagram model. Not to mention, Alaina runs “Keep It Cute Fitness.” The website is www.keepitcutefitness.com.

Rose was also born in Englewood, which is one of the several neighborhoods within the city of Chicago. Before yesterday, reports on the Internet suggested that Rose and Alaina were already married. Though, this information was never confirmed. Until Rose proposed to her, Anderson was just his girlfriend. Now, she’s his fiancée. Alaina Anderson’s Instagram is @alainataughtyou.
