Talking about their romantic encounter, Spencer and Heidi first met at a club called 'Privilege' in Hollywood while filming The Hills. He went to the place with his friend to get a role on the reality show. While Heidi saw him there, she claimed to everyone that he was her soon-to-be husband.

The MTV cameras caught the scene on camera but later admitted it to be a fake and was actually a promise ring that Montag had picked out and paid for. Pratt told Cosmopolitan magazine, “Yeah, I said, ‘Take this promise ring,’ and they clipped that out.”
Pratt and Montag decided to elope in 2008 during a trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, brushing off the legalities question saying that they would take care of it later.

During the mid-2010s, Heidi filed a divorce from Spencer, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. A few weeks later, Spencer responded by saying their marriage had been fake and was only part of The Hills.
