Marc Jacobs and Char Defrancesco get engaged at Chipotle
After watching a flash mob performance, Jacobs drops to his knee
Are proposals extra?
Designer Marc Jacobs popped the question to high-end candlemaker Char Defrancesco at (of all places) Chipotle, as documented on the lovebirds’ social media. Meanwhile, we’ve fallen in love with the couple for having such a low-key proposal.
After watching a lively flash mob groove to Prince’s Kiss at the casual eatery, the former creative director for Louis Vuitton dropped to his knee. DeFrancesco, who seemed surprised in the footage shared to the couple’s Instagrams, nodded his head yes and the two kissed and embraced in celebration.
“And this happened ... ‘Charly DeFrancesco, will you marry me?’” Jacobs captioned the video before thanking those involved. He also gave a shout out to his “Ride or Die fiancé” writing, “@chardefrancesco I LOVE YOU”.
In his caption for the same video, DeFrancesco exclaimed, “GET READY FOR THE ALL TIME GAG!!!!! Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen.”
On Wednesday, Jacobs called DeFrancesco “the love of my life” in a special Instagram post recognising his now-fiancé’s birthday. Naturally, we’re assuming after a proposal at Chipotle, all of his birthday wishes have come true.
