Traditionally, every season ofThe BachelorandThe Bacheloretteends with an engagement and abig old Neil Lane rock— but not inColton Underwood‘s case.
After the season finale aired in March 2019, the couple appeared onJimmy Kimmel Live!On behalf of the network,Kimmel presented Underwood with a Neil Lane engagement ringto use when the time is right — but according to Randolph, she and Underwood don’t have the diamond.
“You know, I don’t really know what’s going on with that because I know we don’t have it,” said Randolph, 24, onLadyGang. “I don’t know who has it, but we’re trying to figure out where it is.”
“It’s some whole contract weird thing,” she added.

After Tobin speculated that ABC would “probably swap it” for whatever ring the couple wants, Randolph said, “That’s what I think they’re going to do.”
“We’ve got to figure it out,” she added. “I’m leaving it up to Colton. I’m just lazy!”

And according to Randolph, Underwood is more preoccupied with picking out the perfect ring than she is.
“You know what’s funny? Just like we were talking about how his outward display of affection is more than mine, I think he’s more concerned with what the ring looks like than I am,” she said. “He’s so sweet. He’s the sweetest guy.”
Last month, Underwoodhinted that the Neil Lane ring isn’t in his possessionduring a Q&A on hisInstagram Story. (Representatives from ABC did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.)
Asked about eventually proposing to Randolph, Underwood said he’ll have to wait until he purchases a diamond on his own.
“After I buy a ring,” he said. “I never actually got a ring. But when the time is right, I’ll buy a nice ring with no strings on it.”
OnJimmy Kimmel Live!last year, Kimmel, 52, explained that Lane requested the ring be given to the couple even though there wasn’t a proposal on finale night.
“I do feel like you guys kind of got cheated a little bit because of the way you went about this,” he said. “Because they love to have you get engaged on television and part of the deal is you get the ring from Neil Lane. So this afternoon I was like, ‘This kind of sucks, they don’t get the ring from Neil Lane.’ So we called Neil Lane and so here, he sent the ring.”
The couple ended the segment as “confidently boyfriend and girlfriend,” and Underwood told Kimmel the possibility of an engagement was on the horizon.
“We’ve talked about it,” the former football player said at the time, after referring to Randolph as his “future wife.”
