Ugly Betty star America Ferrera is not engaged to her long-time beau, filmmaker Ryan Piers Williams, her rep tells Usmagazine.com.

Online reports had speculated she was on her way to the alter because the actress, 24, wore what looked like an engagement ring on the NYC set of Ugly Betty in L.A. this week.

Turns out, the ring could be part of a plot twist on her hit ABC show, a source tells Us.

Williams, 26, is an aspiring director. They met at University of Southern California when he cast her in his student film. They have a golden retriever named Buddy.

The actress – who has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president – stars in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, out in August.
