America’s Next Top Model winner Eva Marcille is engaged to her boyfriend, House of Payne star Lance Gross, following a proposal that took place in front of their families on Christmas Eve.
Surrounded by family and friends, Gross got down on one knee and presented Marcille with a 3.36 1895 Pave Cartier ring, reports Essence.com.
“I cried. It was totally unexpected. I’m still in shock,” Marcille told the Web site. “I could not even sleep because I was afraid that I might wake up from the most beautiful dream ever.”
Gross described the exact moment that he showed her the ring. “Eva asked, ‘Baby, is this real? Baby, are you playing with me?’” he recounted. “Then she said, ‘Forever and always: Yes, Yes, Yes!’ and jumped up and hugged me crying and then she did her happy dance.”
The two haven’t set a wedding date but are strongly considering a summer wedding in 2010.
“I’m proud to call Lance mine because I was in love with him before we ever met. He’s my dream guy,” says Marcille, who currently stars on the CBS soap “The Young and the Restless.”
