Jasmine Goode and Melissa Marie are engaged
Jasmine Goode and Melissa Marie, a lesbian couple from The Valley, recently got engaged.
They have been dating for four years and chose to propose to each other during a vacation in Italy.
Jasmine was surprised when Melissa proposed to her at Villa Monastero in Lake Como. She expressed her astonishment, noting that they had both been considering engagement and looking at rings for some time.
The 37-year-old TV personality said,
“Before I could even propose to her, she surprised me, which I was blown away [by].”
Melissa had originally planned an “intimate and memorable” proposal in Europe. However, once they booked tickets to Mallorca, she suspected that Jasmine might take the opportunity to propose during this trip.
So, Melissa took the initiative to propose to herself first. She shared,
“But the one thing I did say is my dream would be something in Europe, Once [we booked our tickets for] Mallorca, I was like, ‘Oh, I think she might try to use this opportunity to propose. But I wanted to give her a special proposal because she deserves it. It wasn’t just about what I wanted.”
Furthermore, she shared her excitement about the location, recalling,
“I was like, ‘OK, this cannot be more perfect because she absolutely loves being here. .. We went to this place called Villa Monastero; It’s one of the most beautiful villas and gardens around Lake Como. You just walk around and look at the beautiful water. I even found this spot that is notorious for best views and best sunsets.”
On the other hand, Jasmine had no idea that Melissa would propose and thought they were simply going to take a photo. She revealed,
“I thought we were just going to take a photo or a TikTok. But then she got down on one knee, Then the next day I just kept thinking, ‘I hope she doesn’t think I don’t have a ring for her.’ But my plan still had to go down. So I was trying to figure out how to keep this under wraps for a day.”
After Melissa’s proposal, Jasmine pretended that she did not have a ring to keep her own proposal plans a secret for one day.
The following day, Jasmine proposed to Melissa.
