It is official that Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are engaged! The Plaboy model announced the good news on "The View" a few days ago and the New Kids on the Block singer was also there backstage when she told everyone about their engagement.
Jenny exclaimed, "I just got engaged!" then she flashed her engagement ring and said, "It's a yellow sapphire". After making the announcement, co-host Whoopi Goldberg pointed at Donnie and said, "He was over there drying his tears."
The 41-year old comedienne revealed that her 11-year old son Evan Asher helped the pop singer propose to her. Jenny said, "This weekend I was sitting with Donnie and he went into the other room and out came Evan with a card that said 'Will.' And he ran away and came back with a card that said 'You,' and I knew what was happening and I just started crying."
The TV host continued her story, "And then he came out with a card that said 'Marry,' but it was spelled 'Mary,' and the last time Donnie came out with Evan and Evan's shirt said 'Me?' and he was holding the ring. He asked, 'Will you marry me?' I of course said yes."
Jenny emotionally shared, "And in that moment, Evan yelled, 'I have another dad! I have another dad.' And it was just-it made all of us cry." She added, "I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. He's so wonderful."
Awww, that's really sweet of Donnie and to let her son take part in that special moment, was a good move. That only goes to show that he is ready to be part of their family. Now that Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are engaged, when will the two get married?
The American model said, "We're thinking of having an August wedding or maybe stretching it out a year." Her co-host Barbara Walters even offered her apartment in NYC for their wedding. But there's one condition, Barbara teased Jenny, "On the wedding night, you cannot stay in my apartment." I guess they have to rent a hotel in NYC for their honeymoon.
The Hollywood couple started dating last year and now Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are engaged. Do you think this whirlwind romance will last for a long time?
