Who is Manuela Arbeláez?

Born in Colombia, Manuela moved to New Jersey in 2006. Two years later, she became one of the finalists on Univision's unscripted beauty contest Nuestra Belleza Latina. That same year, she was picked as one of the five finalists in "The Price Is Right Model Search."

Though she didn't win the contest, Manuela made an impression on The Price Is Right's producers, who hired her to model for the series in 2009. Manuela has been at the game show ever since, and also got to test her acting chops in a 2010 guest appearance on The Bold and the Beautiful.

Fans of pop music might recognize the Colombian beauty as well. She's appeared in Robin Thicke's music video for "It's in the Mornin'" as well as in Dirty Money's music video with Diddy (featuring Drake), "Loving You No More."

Manuela married Boston native Matt Doherty in 2018, after the two met one night through mutual friends, according to Wiki Net Worth.

"They spent their day together at a house party, and Matt asked her [for her] cell number," the outlet writes.

Matt proposed in January 2017 at Big Sur's gorgeous Post Ranch Inn. "Man of my dreams doing man of my dreams stuff!" Manuela excitedly captioned a post of Matt down on one knee. "#YESBABYYES #engaged #isaidyes," she added.
