This past Mother's Day, Billie paid tribute to her mom on Instagram writing: "Sending my love to anyone who has lost a mother and anyone who might just be having a complicated Mother’s Day this year.

“This is my 4th Mother’s Day without my Momby and days like today are never easy, but I’ve found that doing things that make me feel more connected to her make it a little easier – watching her favorite movies, listening to music we listened to together, looking through old pictures and my personal favorite – eating + drinking things she loved.

"Today I’m going to watch Postcards from The Edge, listen to Tom Petty + Dire Straits, have a fried mozzarella from La Scala and have a couple Coca-Colas with an aggressive amount of ice.”

 The couple has been together for three years, but there's no word yet on how Austen popped the question
