After a few understandable minutes of freaking out, Scott told Today that he called the hotel manager to tell them his dilemma. The manager found the valuables tucked in the hotel safe and told Scott he would send a cab driver to the airport with the goods. "I'm like, What?!'" Scott recounted, incredulous that yet another stranger would be entrusted with such valuable belongings.
According to the HGTV star, the manager replied, "No one is more trustworthy than their cab drivers in Scotland." And that appeared to be accurate, as the trusty cabbie showed up at the airport with Scott and Deschanel's belongings at the exact moment their plane was boarding. The hotel safe snafu wasn't the only time Scott struggled with Deschanel's engagement ring, either.
In the couple's October 2023 People cover story, Scott revealed that, although he had saved the floral engagement ring in his phone for an entire year after Deschanel mentioned she liked it (cute!), he ordered way too big of a size for Deschanel's petite hands. In fact, that's why the $40k+ ring was in the hotel safe in the first place — ironically, Deschanel didn't want the ring to slip off her finger and be lost forever.
