Despite Brooke Burke<\/strong> postponing her wedding to fianc\u00e9e Scott Rigsby<\/strong>, a source exclusively tells Life & Style<\/em> the nuptials will go ahead eventually as she\u2019s more focused on making sure the event is perfect than rushing into formalities.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cShe and Scott are still very much in love,\u201d the insider says. \u201cShe absolutely wants to marry him, but there\u2019s also no huge sense of urgency because she already feels like she\u2019s married to him. He\u2019s very much her partner.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The Dancing with the Stars<\/em> alum<\/a>, 63, got engaged to Scott, 49, in 2021, but still hasn\u2019t penned a date for their wedding after four years, despite giving some dates in the past they ended up blowing by<\/a>. Onlookers unfamiliar with their relationship might suggest they may never get hitched by the way things are going, though Brooke has discussed how much she\u2019s looking forward to the ceremony. \u201cPart of the hold up has been Brooke\u2019s perfectionism,\u201d the source explains.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe really wanna design a wedding that we can enjoy \u2014 that\u2019s not just a big party for show,\u201d she told People<\/em> in October 2023, adding they were \u201ccommitted to 2024\u201d in the same interview.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cFor me, it has to be meaningful or not at all, which is the challenge. To do something fabulous and grand and keep that intimacy and keep it special,\u201d the former Wild On!<\/em> host explained.<\/span><\/p>\n Another reason for taking it slow is the fact both Brooke and her hubby-to-be want to take their time blending their families, as she and Scott share six kids between them. Brooke is a mother of four: to daughters Neriah<\/strong>, 25, and Sierra<\/strong>, 23, with ex-husband Garth Fisher<\/strong>, and daughter Rain<\/strong>, 18, and son Shaya<\/strong>, 17, who she shares with ex-husband David Charvet<\/strong><\/a>. While Scott is father to daughter Lila<\/strong>, 17, and son Levi<\/strong>, 14.<\/span><\/p>\n Brooke said she has a \u201cgreat relationship\u201d with her fianc\u00e9e\u2019s kids, especially Levi. As for her own children\u2019s affections for their future stepdad: \u201cEverybody loves Scott. Thank God.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe kids are all on board, which is a blessing because I know how challenging that can be and [I] feel very lucky to be able to say that,\u201d she explained. \u201cThey\u2019re excited about our wedding, they\u2019re excited about life, they\u2019re excited about our new home \u2014 they just love him.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The insider adds, \u201cShe has had her daughters help in this from the start, which has been such a joy, they are very happy for her and very invested in it. But that means a lot of cooks in the kitchen so decisions have taken longer.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Even with the delays, \u201cEveryone is expecting it to happen soon, they\u2019re incredibly happy and such a wonderful match. Brooke is one of the sweetest people you could meet and the great thing about Scott is that he cherishes that \u2014 he doesn\u2019t take advantage. He treats her like his queen, he knows he scored a huge jackpot with her and he doesn\u2019t take that for granted.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
