Ciarra posted about her engagement on social media, saying that Jesse is now her “family,” whom she is grateful for. She added, “We have chosen each other to ‘do’ this life together and I couldn’t be luckier.”
Ciarra, who is a visual artist, continued, “Thank you for being my nurturers, my partners, my truth, my mirror.’
