Romantic Celebrity Proposals: Couples Working Together Can’t Help Falling In-Love
Ace Young, 31, an American Idol graduate, proposed to 'Idol' Season 3 runner-up Diana DeGarmo on the Idol stage Wednesday night during the 11th season finale of the show.
"We have conquered Broadway together, we have created new music together, we have an amazing group of people around us," Young said, adding, "I love you to death. You're my best friend. I want to make this last forever and I will do anything in my power to have the most amazing life together if you will have me. Diana Nicole DeGarmo, will you marry me?"
