MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, has just announced the biggest collaboration of his life – he’s engaged to fellow content creator Thea Booysen. The YouTube star shared the exciting news on Instagram with a series of photos from his Christmas Day proposal.
In the pictures, MrBeast is seen getting down on one knee and presenting Thea, his girlfriend of over 2 years, with a stunning diamond ring. The couple, wearing matching Christmas sweaters, were surrounded by their loved ones during this special moment.
Both MrBeast’s family and Thea’s family were in on the surprise, with her family flying out from South Africa to be a part of the engagement. MrBeast emphasized the importance of including Thea’s family in the occasion, as she is very close to them.
Despite his reputation for elaborate stunts, MrBeast wanted the proposal to be an intimate and meaningful moment, reflecting the seriousness of the commitment. The couple met through a mutual friend while MrBeast was visiting South Africa, bonding over their shared passions, including YouTube.
Having navigated challenges like a long-distance relationship and growing fame, MrBeast and Thea are excited to take this next step together. Congratulations to the happy couple on their engagement!
