In a surprising twist, a single mother of three, dating her partner Chris for a decade, orchestrated a proposal at a family birthday party with the help of her children. Each family member wore shirts with endearing messages, asking, "Uncle Chris, A.K.A Dad, will you marry mummy?"
Despite the elaborate setup, Chris appeared visibly uncomfortable and non-committal. Wearing a shirt labeled "King," he shook his head, scratched his head, and refrained from providing a direct response to the heartfelt proposal.
The woman, expressing her love and emphasizing their 10-year journey with a child together, held out a ring, asking Chris to spend the rest of his life with her. However, Chris, stating, "As an African man, I have to do it the proper way," evaded a definitive answer.
The awkwardness continued as he declined to kiss her when prompted by guests.
