The Hills alum Audrina Patridge’s relationship with singer Michael Ray keeps getting sweeter — and could even result in a walk down the wedding aisle.
“I’m open to it,” Patridge, 40, exclusively told Us Weekly on Friday, May 1, while attending Calamigos Ranch Resort & Spa’s Leading Hotels of the World accreditation celebration.
“I think when you find someone that actually clicks and makes you happy, and we’ve both been through divorces and all of that, I think we know what not to do and what we want,” she added of the possibility of getting engaged again.
Patridge was previously married to Corey Bohan, with whom she shares 9-year-old daughter Kirra, from 2016 to 2018. As for Ray, 38, he tied the knot with Carly Pearce in October 2019. The singers divorced one year later.
Patridge and Ray confirmed their relationship in July 2024, though the former reality TV star made it clear she’s in no hurry to say “I do.”
“We’re not rushing into anything. We just love each other and are taking it easy,” she told Us on Friday, offering a glimpse into her romance. “I feel like Michael is very private. When we are together, we’re just so present and we usually just stay in at the house or cook dinner.”
According to Patridge, she even recently surprised her “amazing” boyfriend on his 38th birthday late last month.
“I actually surprised him for his birthday on Wednesday, and flew out to Georgia and took him to this Dunya Camp, which is incredible,” she said. “It’s long distance. I’ll fly out there, He’ll fly here. We make it work.”
Ray is currently based in North Carolina, while Patridge lives across the country in California with her daughter.

“When I met Michael, it was very unexpected,” Patridge explained. “I was kind of in that mindset of, ‘I don’t need a guy. I’m happy being alone. It’s me and my daughter, girl power. We’re gonna travel the world.’ And then I met Michael, and we just clicked with our chemistry. He’s my best friend and we’re inseparable.”
Long before finding love with Ray, Patridge rose to fame on MTV’s The Hills in 2006 alongside the likes of Lauren Conrad, Kristin Cavallari, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. Most of the OG cast returned for the network’s The Hills: New Beginnings in 2019.
“That was a whole different kind of show, [but] it was still fun,” Partridge told Us of the revival, adding that she is “open” to another reunion down the line. “I’m not opposed. Now that I think we’re all older, we have families [and] we have kids, our lives are very different than it was. It’s not as crazy and exciting at first.”
