“My family flew in from South Africa for Christmas and we were going to celebrate Christmas at our house, so both families were here,” Booysen said people. “We were opening presents and then for the last present he asked me to close my eyes because it was a surprise.”

MrBeast added that he even tried to wean his girlfriend off the fragrance a while ago.

“I purposely dropped a large box to make a fuss before I presented her with the real gift – with the ring inside. And then I got down on one knee and proposed,” he said.

“I was trying to think of the best way to catch her off guard so that it would be a surprise,” MrBeast continued. “Thea is very close to her family, so I wanted to make sure they were included in this important event. Christmas was great because they were in town from the other side of the world.’

The couple met in 2022 when MrBeast was visiting South Africa, where Booysen is from. The two dined together and bonded over science and YouTube conversations. Although MrBeast was due to return home soon, the relationship continued to grow when he sent Booysen a direct message via X, asking him if he could read the book she was writing at the time.
