Matthew Pomeroy, who plays Aladdin, asked Natasha Lamb, who plays Jasmine, to marry him during the curtain call of their play. The two actors are a part of the production at De Montfort Hall in Leicester and had just finished a performance when Matthew went down on one knee and asked Natasha to be his wife.
So, something special happened at the end of tonight’s performance of #Aladdin…..@matthewmagician @Natasha_onstage pic.twitter.com/PsL9TbABF7

It was scary. I hadn’t worked out where to put the ring after my costume change for the finale as it didn’t have pockets – so when I bowed I thought it would fall out the belt. I spend my life on stage – it’s my happy place. Proposing on there fits me perfectly.

Matthew even arranged for their parents to be a part of the audience so they could witness this important moment. How adorable!
AWWWW 🤗 💕 Wasn’t That Lovely…. SMOOOCHES 💋 💋
