Haley Baldwin saw the post and commented “love you,” according to E! News. Ireland Baldwin also responded to a commenter who asked her if she will be the next one in the family to get engaged.
“I’m married to the money,” the model wrote.
Hailey, 21, and Justin, 24, got engaged in the Bahamas over the weekend, and it sounds like their families approve. Justin’s parents, Jeremy Bieber and Pattie Mallette, both posted ecstatic reactions to their son’s engagement news to social media, while Hailey’s father Stephen reportedly thanked God for the union.

"If the Republic of Italy has any difficulty in ensuring the presence before the investigating officer or the trial court of the four marines, then things would stand as they are," a bench of Justice R.M. Lodha and Justice H.L. Gokhale said.
The court said that the "proceedings before the trial court should not be defeated or impeded by the absence of these four marines".
Harish Salve, who appeared for the Italian government, told the court that he has yet to get full instruction and clarifications from the ministers of the Italian government and would not like to say anything with if and buts whose implications are concealed.
He said that he could not take one position now and then back out at a subsequent stage.
Salve said that the position of Italian government on the question of sovereign immunity and the jurisdiction of Indian court had to be stated in an unambiguous terms.
He told the court that Indian courts can decided on the alleged offence committed by the two marines but first the apex court should decide the question of sovereign rights of the republic of Italy.
At this the court asked him if that was the position, then why did the Italian government implead itself in two admiralty pleas before the court in Kerala. "Nobody had asked you to do that," Justice Lodha pointed out.
Salve's arguments came in the afternoon when the case was taken up again for the hearing. Earlier, the matter was adjourned till 12.30 p.m. when it told that the Italian government would convey its final decision by the afternoon.
The matter was directed to be listed for Wednesday morning after Salve said that Italian Minister would be confirming their position only later.
These are four other marines who are still on board the ship MT Enrica Lexie and could be required by the investigating officer probing the killing of two Indian fishermen by two of their colleagues.
Two Italian marines currently in judicial custody for shooting two fishermen Feb 15 are Marines Chief Master Sergeant Massimilano Latorre and Sergeant Salvatore Girone.
The two marines are in judicial custody since Feb 20 and are currently lodged at the Thiruvananthapuram Central Prison.

Club leadership Emily Keidel, Max Bartolomea, Dustin Parsons and Slyvia Johnson pose at Ryan House in Jan. 2018.
Incorporated in 2004, Ryan House was a home for over 276 children in need of hospice care in the 2016 fiscal year alone.
Now, Ryan House is partnering with Arizona State University students with the hope of increasing the number of volunteers.
Debuting just in time for the spring semester, Ryan House at ASU Downtown was created to further that mission.
With 57 members and 36 volunteers already on board, the club is expected to accumulate at least 7,500 volunteer hours by the end of 2018. Bartolomea attributes the club’s formation to being in the right place at the right time and credits the vice president of the club, junior biochemistry major Dustin Parsons, with th...
Bartolomea has had a working relationship with Ryan House for two years and has spent time building relationships with patients through his volunteer work. Both he and Parsons will be receiving The Ryan House Courage Award this March for their work with the organization.
Established this year, the award is given out to a member or group from the Ryan House community, whether they be a volunteer, staff member, patient or family member, for courageous action.
Marghan Miller, an Individual Giving Officer with Ryan House, is excited for both Bartolomea and Parsons to be honored with the award and is looking forward to the continued expansion of their partnership with ASU.

Miller also says that volunteering is a great way for students to open their eyes and give back to those who might not be as blessed as they are.
Ryan House volunteers report to staff members who place them where the most need is. Whether that is playing board games, singing or refereeing wheelchair races, volunteers spend time bonding with young patients and creating lasting relationships.
Students looking to giving back with Ryan House at ASU Downtown have two different types of volunteer options.
Those looking for an easy way to get involved can contact the club about volunteering once a month at parties and at other large events Ryan House hosts for its patients. For those looking to volunteer more regularly, training sessions are hosted by the club on a semi-regular basis. Ryan House at ASU Downtown is open t...
Students in need of clinical training can also earn hours through their volunteer work with Ryan House. For students like Emily Keidel, a second year medical studies major and treasurer of the club, the basic training is completely worthwhile.
The heart of the club comes from the passion of its members.
WHEN ex-pitman Jim Logan lost his job at a South Yorkshire colliery more than a decade ago he found himself at a loose end.
But following an inspirational visit to Cuba and with the help of his GP wife – daughter of miners' leader Arthur Scargill – he is about to open a pioneering 3m health centre in the former mining community of Kendray, outside Barnsley.
The centre, which Mr Logan will manage, is dedicated to helping rebuild the mining community, devastated by the closure of numerous pits in the area.
It will be the first of its kind in the country, and it is hoped it will pave the way for others to follow.
Mr Logan was formerly in charge of hundreds of men as underground manager at Barnsley's Grimethorpe colliery – famed for its brass band and as setting for the award-winning film Brassed Off.
The pit was the heart of the community, generations of men working there year after year.
But when mine after mine began closing across the country in the 1980s and 1990s, the miners at Grimethorpe knew it was only a matter of time before they too were doomed.
And 13 years ago the pit finally shut its doors, leaving Mr Logan, 51, and hundreds of other men out of work.
At first Mr Logan, whose wife is Dr Margaret Scargill, 43, daughter of Arthur Scargill, the man who led Britain's miners in their strike against pit closures in 1984-85, transferred his management skills from the mining industry to the National Health Service.
He carried out a number of projects for Barnsley Health Authority, including setting up a practice managers' group and a management training project for Sheffield and Barnsley which is still in operation today.
He also became manager at Ashville Medical Centre in Barnsley, where he met his future wife.
They married, had two sons and live in a farmhouse between Barnsley and Wakefield, where Mr Logan farms 14 acres, raising a few animals including sheep and goats.
But his passion was to build a health centre to help rebuild devastated mining communities.
He said: "I am a 51-year- old Kendray lad who worked underground from the age of 15. I left school with no qualifications and worked my way through the NCB training programmes to finally achieve the position of underground manager at Grimethorpe colliery.
"The unfortunate and premature closure of the mining industry meant the end of my ambition to become manager of my own mine."
Working in primary health care led Mr Logan to develop a vision of how the needs of the former mining communities around Barnsley could be met.
Many were, and are, in a desperate state. Social problems such as drug and alcohol abuse multiplied once the pits had been taken from the communities.
Mr Logan knew there had to be changes, with health and social care being provided together, so he began to look at other models – including foreign countries.
He and eminent British cardiologist Walter Rhoden travelled to Cuba where its health care system is recognised as not only the best of any country in the third world, but also better in some aspects than some services in the developed world.
There the authorities had developed a network of "polyclinics", or one-stop shops, an idea he brought back to Kendray.
At the root of the project is a belief in the need to unite provision of health and social care.
He took proposal to amalgamate the two care sectors to Barnsley Health Service and Barnsley Council Social Services Department. But this was turned down, department chiefs saying budgets must remain separate.
Undeterred, he went ahead and drew up plans for such a centre, deciding to field the project himself.
Throughout the development of the plan he worked closely with the six doctors and staff who were to work at the centre, including his own wife. Once it was complete he sought and won the funding.
Now it has turned been turned into a reality providing chiropody, dental services, ophthalmology, pharmacy, dietetics, midwives, community psychiatric services, and physiotherapy.
It will open for the first time this Thursday, and will serve the populations of the former mining communities of Kendray, Stairfoot, Ardsley, and parts of Barnsley town centre, Worsborough and Lunwood.

I have just read "Oscar Gold Diggers" (Nov. 16) and can only wonder how to make sense of the world we live in: The price tag reported for a one-time appearance by one of these film stars represents fully twice what I make in a year. And I am a high school teacher, passionately engaged in a supposedly worthy line of wor...
When will this country get its priorities straight? All the political rhetoric in this state (and country) about the importance of education would make it seem as though we aspired to investing in what's important. So why can't we find ways to honor the hard work of teachers?
These figures insult anybody who works a hard day for a modest wage.
"CBS This Morning" co-host Norah O'Donnell is recovering from an emergency appendectomy over the weekend. In an Instagram post Monday afternoon, O'Donnell told her followers that she is on the mend.
"I am feeling much better and hope to return to NYC later this week if I feel well enough to fly," she wrote.
O'Donnell added, "I'm down an organ, but learned some valuable lessons this week," and vowed she will "never take a pain free day for granted again."
O'Donnell urged her followers to listen to their bodies and see a doctor if something seems amiss. "Don't wait 5 days like I did ignoring pain," she wrote.
Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, a finger-shaped organ that projects from the colon to the lower right side of the abdomen.
The painful condition is common, with about 300,000 cases every year in the US.
Diagnosing appendicitis can be difficult because the symptoms can be similar to other health issues. Doctors usually have to rule out kidney stones, gall bladder problems and urinary tract infections.
While anyone can develop appendicitis, it most often occurs in people between the ages of 10 and 30.
The current treatment for adults is usually laparoscopic surgery to remove the appendix. Laparoscopic surgery involves just a small incision, and most patients leave the hospital a day or two later.
"The major risk of not having surgery from appendicitis is that it would continue to inflame and then rupture or burst and that can lead to a major abscess which can lead to severe sepsis, a protracted stay in the hospital, and even death," Dr. Oscar Guillamondegui, a surgeon at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, to...
Most patients and are back to normal activities in two to six weeks.
Researchers around the country are also currently studying the use of antibiotics versus surgery to treat appendicitis.
"The results aren't in yet, [but] it may show that antibiotics are just as effective at treating appendicitis," Guillamondegui said.
A study out of Finland published last year found antibiotics to be a reasonable alternative to surgery to treat appendicitis. Five years after treatment with antibiotics, almost two-thirds of the 500 patients studied hadn't had another attack.

(AINA) -- On June 10, 2014 ISIS captured Mosul, Iraq's second largest city. On August 7, 2014 ISIS drove into the Nineveh Plains north and east of Mosul, causing nearly 200,000 Assyrians to flee their villages.
It is no coincidence that ISIS chose to drive out the Assyrians on August 7, because August 7 is Assyrian Martyrs Day. It is commemorated worldwide by Assyrians to remember their fallen, including the 3,000 who were killed by the Iraqi army in Iraq between August 7 and 11, 1933 (see The Simmele Massacre).
Almost none of the Assyrians have returned to their villages. They have settled mostly in Ankawa, an Assyrian suburb of Arbel, and Dohuk (Assyrian Noohadra) in the far north of Iraq, near the Turkish border.
The Nineveh Plains was the last stronghold of Assyrians in Iraq.
Interviews with the displaced Assyrians reveal while some want to return to their homes and villages, the majority want to emigrate to Europe, the United States and Australia, where there are large Assyrian communities.
On February 23, 2015 ISIS attacked the 35 Assyrians villages on the Khabur river in the Hasaka province of Syria. It captured 253 Assyrians and drove 3,000 Assyrians from their homes. ISIS subsequently released 25 Assyrians, and still holds 228 captive. All 23 residents of Tel Goran, one of the 35 villages, were releas...
Suffering centuries of persecution by Muslims (Arabs, Turks, Kurds and Iranians), the events of the past year have caused a fundamental psychological transformation of most of the Assyrian population. The low grade genocide since 2004 and the wanton destruction by ISIS in the last year in Iraq and Syria have caused mos...
Assyrians see no future or hope for themselves in the Middle East. The numbers bear it out. In 2004 there were about 1.5 million Assyrians in Iraq. Today there are about 300,000. They fled to Jordan, Syria, Turkey and Lebanon. And now they are fleeing Syria.
Assyrians in the Middle East -- Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey -- have never had equality. Living in Muslim ruled societies, they are treated as second class citizens, even today, and denied equality in all forms.
By all indications, the Middle East is a tinderbox ready to ignite, and Assyrians will suffer death and destruction in conflagrations in which they have no national interest or stake. Worse, they will be forced to fight on both sides and to kill each other for a cause that is not theirs.
The safety of the Assyrian people requires a paradigm shift.
To insure their survival Assyrians should leave the Middle East and go into the West. There are only about 3.5 million Assyrians in the world, and nearly 2 million are already in the West.
While every country has its challenges for living, at least in the West there is physical safety and religious freedom.
Assyrians who are in the West have been very successful in all aspects, economically, educationally, politically and socially.
Some Assyrians fear that in the West Assyrians will assimilate, but this happens also in the Middle East. Assimilation is a concern, but it is not inevitable and it is not because of the West, it is because Assyrians have failed to establish institutions in the Diaspora to insure the survival of their culture. Working ...
It boils down to faith. If one believes that death is inevitable, he will succumb to fatalism and do nothing to prevent it. If one believes in the future and the progress of life, he will work to better his life.
