Note to hookers all over the world: this is how you do it. Ashley Dupre is a famous prostitute (No, really. That's what she's famous for.) who's now sporting a six-figure rock on her hand and a millionaire's bun in her oven. Talk about upward mobility.

You may remember Ms. Dupre for her role in the sex scandal that brought down former New York State governor Eliot Spitzer. She later posed nude for Playboy.

Well, Ashley's days of overtly whoring herself out are over, and these days she's being slightly more subtle about it. She recently got engaged to Thomas "TJ" Earle, an asphalt heir, whom Ashley met while he was still married to the wife of his two children. The couple's, um…"working relationship" quickly became romantic and Earle proposed shortly after knocking Ashley up.

This is old-school romance we're talking about here, kids. After enjoying Ashley's professional services for the first time, Earle reportedly bragged to a friend, "I could've had her for free." Awwwww. That's the kind of story that makes for a great wedding toast.
