The supermodel, now 67, told PEOPLE on July 15, “just finding the love of my life at this point in my life has been amazing.”

The 70-year-old financier, who lives with Johnson in Rancho Mirage, California, popped the question while they were attending an event in Palm Springs with their extended family.

“My older sister Sheilah was there and she said to Brian, ‘I didn’t hear you give my sister an answer when she asked you to marry her,'” Johnson recalled. “And he said, ‘I have answered her. I have asked her to marry me. And she said, No. Besides that — I don’t have a ring.'”

With that, Johnson said, “Brian’s 88-year-old mother took off her wedding ring and passed it down the table till it got to Brian and he got down on one knee. I was sobbing uncontrollably and he said ‘Will you marry me?’ and I said yes!”

Maillian put the ring on Johnson’s finger and when Johnson took it off to give back to his mom, her soon-to-be mother-in-law told her: “You can keep it on until the rest of the day!”

After they became engaged, Johnson said laughing, “I was like how the heck did that happen? I was saying I’m never going to get married again.” (She was previously married to real estate agent Billy Potter and later music producer Danny Sims, father of their daughter Anansa.)

In lieu of a ring of her own, Johnson instead said, “Brian, I don’t know how to say this but I don’t want a diamond ring, let’s buy a house instead.”

And that exactly what they did.
