This Man Proposed to His Girlfriend on the Side of a Cow
We’ve heard some unique proposal stories before, but this one takes the cake.
Or, perhaps we should say more accurately, this one takes the COW.
As in: This is an article about a man who painted his big question to his girlfriend on the side of a farm animal.
Did the proposal moooove her to tears?
Let’s find out….
According to BBC News, Chris Gospel knew for a long time that he wanted Eilidh Fraser to be his wife.
But the Aberdeenshire resident wasn’t certain just how to make this romantic dream into a reality. He wasn’t quite sure how to make his proposal one she would always remember.
And then it occurred to Gospel that Fraser loved her cow, Curlytop, and Gospel loved her — so why not combine those two loves?!?
And that’s how he ended up snapping the photo you see above.
“Curlytop is Eilidh’s favorite cow,” Gospel told the BBC simply, explaining of his now-fiancee:
“She is around the cows most nights so I managed to write the proposal, and then said we should go down and see her after she got back from work.”
It’s unclear at this moment just what Chris used to write the proposal on the side of the cow.
Some sort of paint, we presume; a kind that can easily be washed off.
“Chris just said, ‘do you want to go check the cows?’ and I was not expecting anything,” Eilidh said of how she got blown away by the proposal, elaborating as follows:
“Curlytop… is an affectionate cow – she’s like a big pet.
“She comes running to us and I see she has something blue on her. Curlytop turns and it says ‘will you marry me’. It was a complete surprise.”
Gospel says he did get down on one knee for the major moment and that Fraser said yes right away.
The latter, who works as a the veterinary lab assistant, says the couple is now trying to find a wedding venue at which Curlytop will be permitted to attend.
That may be a challenge.
Still, we wish Chris and Eilidh nothing but the best.
We hope they milk this cool cow story for all the publicity and even all the money for their wedding that they possibly can.
UPDATE: We’ve now learned that Gospel used a livestock market to write on the cow. Makes sense.

Dennis Shields Nearly Proposed to Bethenny Frankel Before He Died: Report
Bethenny Frankel is yet to speak on the tragic death of Dennis Shields.
As previously detailed, the 51-year old died last Friday morning in his Trump Tower apartment, allegedly of an accidental Oxycodone overdose.
Shields had often been featured and discussed on The Real Housewives of New York City due to his long-term, on-again/off-again relationship with Frankel, arguably the most successful and best-known star in this entire Bravo franchise.
In fact, Frankel had only just talked about her romance with Shields on the last new installment that aired, telling Dorinda Medley that she was planning to take a 90-day break from the relationship.
But that episode was filmed many months ago.
According to Radar Online, Frankel and Shields were actually in a fairly positive place not long before the latter passed away.
So positive, in fact, that Shields was planning to propose to Frankel during the final dinner date they would ever have.
“He bought a ring and took her to dinner to feel her out and it became obvious to him that she’d never marry him and it left Dennis heart broken,” an insider tells Radar, elaborating about what transpired as follows:
“Bethenny could sense that he was going to ask her to marry him and it pushed her away. So he never took it out to propose but that was his purpose.”
Wow.
That really puts things in perspective, huh?
Frankel and Shields actually met over 30 years ago.
They remained in touch and starting dating in 2016, not long after Shields split from his wife and three years after Bethenny broke up with husband Jason Hoppy.
It’s not shocking, to anyone familiar with this up-and-down relationship, that Shields could see a serious future with Frankel, while she maintain major doubts over the years.
This doesn’t mean she didn’t feel very strongly about Shields, of course.
“He was hoping the time was finally right, but just as he got his hopes up he was shot down again, and that would be the last time sadly,” Radar writes of the aforementioned meal.
As we said, Bethenny has not yet commented on his passing.
However, Dennis was still legally married to his estranged wife, Jill, saying:
“We are all heartbroken. Dennis was, and will always be, the love of my life. His spirit lives on in our children. Please respect our family’s privacy at this time.”
She also Tweeted:
“Even though we did not live together, you still remained my nest friend and my husband. Not many people were able to grasp our situation but it worked for us.”
Finally, Carole Radziwill, Frankel’s former friend and occasional foil, expressed her shock and sadness on social media via the following message:
I just heard the sad news about Dennis. He was a good man. My condolences to all his family and friends. So tragic.
We send our condolences to Frankel and to anyone who knew Dennis Shields well.
May he rest in peace.

Justin Bieber Proposed to Hailey Baldwin to Get REVENGE on Selena Gomez!
Selena Gomez is rumored to be dating her friend’s 18-year-old brother, a guy named Caleb Stevens. She’s known him for years.
While some might assume that this is retaliation for Justin Bieber’s engagement to Hailey Baldwin, a report says that it’s the exact opposite.
It’s claimed that Justin proposed to Hailey because he was freaking out about Selena’s new romance. If that’s true … poor Hailey.
RadarOnline reports that Justin’s engagement to Hailey was, at least in part, revenge against Selena Gomez for her new fling with … Caleb Stevens.
So, a quick explainer: Raquelle Stevens is a lovely Instagram star whose primary claim to fame is arguably that she’s friends with Selena Gomez.
That’s a tall order on its own, honestly. A lot of hardcore Selenators follow Raquelle for that alone — and, of course, to catch Selena in her Instagram stories.
Raquelle has a brother, Caleb Stevens. And, according to RadarOnline, he and Selena have been hooking up for nearly a month.
And their sources report that, when Justin discovered this, he did not take it well — and it led directly to his proposal to Hailey Baldwin.
“Justin found out about Caleb in mid-June,” the insider says. “And he confronted Selena about it.”
That sounds almost unimaginably awkward.
“But Selena denied that anything was going on,” the source explains. “Because she didn’t want him to freak out.”
Justin has had a somewhat volatile history, and it makes sense that Selena would be concerned about his well-being even after their breakup.
“Needless to say,” the insider dishes. “After finding out from one of Raquelle’s friends that Selena and Caleb were hooking up, he freaked out and went absolutely ballistic.”
Yikes. That’s not a healthy response. But then, Justin believed that being with Selena was God’s plan.
So it sounds like Justin’s proposal to Hailey was less of an action and more of a reaction.
The insider declares: “Selena’s friends all know that the only reason he got engaged to her was to get back at Selena!”
If this is true, it is wildly unfair to Hailey Baldwin. She deserves the world, not to be some sort of twisted consolation prize.
Though Selena apparently tunes out a lot of entertainment news, she did hear whispers that people think that she’s dating Caleb to get revenge.
She laughs.
The source explains Selena’s attitude: “She thinks it’s hilarious that everyone assumes she is dating Caleb to get back at Justin when it is the other way around.”
Caleb has been spotted on set with Selena. Some suggest that they’re either dating or she just needed a younger male assistant and chose her friend’s brother for a weird summer internship.
“Selena has known Caleb for years,” the insider explains.
Elaborating, the source says: “He is not some random dude that came out of nowhere.”
In other words, this was not some rebound of Selena’s. This is not sounding like a meaningless fling.
“He has been a part of her life for a long time,” the insider concludes. “And this is why Justin was so bothered by it.”
“Justin knows that Caleb actually means something to Selena,” the source says. “And that is what makes him so angry”
We’re sorry that the Biebs allegedly feels that way, but even sorrier if he somehow channeled that anger into making a major life decision — for him and for Hailey.
Hailey is beautiful and sweet and she deserves to be happy. We certainly hope that Justin proposed to her for the right reasons.
But … if this was motivated by revenge or a desire to one-up Selena, that would explain why he popped the question after only a few weeks of dating.
Or, you know, it could be like what Ariana Grande says: “Love is lit.”
For now, it’s not yet officially confirmed that Selena is even dating Caleb. Let’s avoid jumping to too many conclusions.
But let’s remember that Justin is the last person with the right to be mad about Selena’s romantic choices.

Jacob Roloff: The Romantic Way He Proposed to Isabel Rock
Love is in the air at Roloff farms! And in Iceland. And basically wherever the former Roloff family black sheep and his lady love are.
Because Jacob Roloff and Isabel Rock are engaged!
And now Izzy is telling fans all about how that beautiful proposal in Iceland went down. These details are amazing, and the twists really kept us hooked.
In a How He Asked post for The Knot, Isabel Rock describes exactly how Jacob Roloff proposed to her on their Iceland vacation. Get ready to believe in love again.
“Jacob and I met in 2011, on the school bus when he was a freshman and I was a sophomore in high school.”
The two were practically neighbors in Helvetia.
“He had gone to private school his whole life up until high school, so we never met until then. I thought he was so incredibly cute.”
There’s no crush like an adolescent crush.
“And so, being the naturally outgoing person I am, I’d always sit next to him on the bus and strike up a conversation.”
Most of us have been there on at least one bus route or another growing up.
“Being the naturally quiet person he is, he would always hesitantly pull out his headphones and say ‘Hi’ shyly.”
Most of us have formed plenty of friendships simply by befriending the most attractive classmate or fellow bus-rider. (Or is that just me being shallow?)
“As time went on, more small chat on the bus lead to us becoming really good friends. We talked almost every day throughout the years.”
Their bus ride friendship turned into one of those more voluntary friendships where they both made an effort to hang out, which happened more and more after Izzy graduated.
“Jacob and I started hanging out more often. What was a simple friendship turned into a best friend-ship really quickly. He and I spent almost every single day together that summer.”
And yes, there was more to her friendship with Jacob than his cuteness at this point.
“He was incredibly easy to talk to, so sweet to me and every time we would hang out, it felt like such an adventure.”
And now, of course, they’re in a relationship.
“Jacob and I have been together three years now. Easily the best three years of my life and on August 1st, our three year anniversary, I had no idea it was about to get even better. Jacob surprised me with something special: Plane tickets to Iceland!”
They had always talked about visiting famously beautiful Iceland. And, in December, they went.
“Iceland is an incredible place, and it is super romantic. We explored as much of the country as we could in eight days, and spent a lot of our time in the city of Reykjavik, which is Iceland’s [capitol], and the most amazing city I have seriously ever been to.”
She actually mentions that Reykjavik is Iceland’s capitol more than once, which we’d hope that most people know. But it’s nice of her to make that clear in case anyone’s confused.
“Something I found interesting about the trip was the butterflies I kept getting at various times throughout. On Christmas Day, though, the butterflies wouldn’t quit and I just knew something amazing was going to happen!”
Sometimes, when a couple is really in sync with each other, it’s almost like they can read each other’s thoughts.
She says that they parted ways to get each other different gifts, and though she already knew what she wanted to get him, that nagging feeling of excitement wouldn’t go away.
So, just in case, in an artistic card, she wrote a message:
“Jacob went out to buy my gift and while I waited at the hotel, I wrote in the card, ‘I can’t wait to spend forever with you, fiancé’, because I just had a hunch what was about to happen.”
This is actually a classic magician’s trick — keep a card hidden on your person in case it comes up, and then pull it out to give the appearance of certainty when really you were just guessing. This is a very romantic application of that technique, though.
“I figured if I ended up being wrong, I would just keep the card in my pocket and he’d never have to know!”
As it turned out, they went outside and took in the beautiful scenery for their exchange of gifts. You don’t have to have those “butterflies” to know that Jacob had something more for her than a neat new phone case or whatever.
“My heart started beating so fast. He handed me my gift; a tiny black box, inside of it a tiny bag, with a stunning turquoise ring.”
Turquoise is gorgeous.
“I slowly pulled it out, and to my complete surprise, it was a ring we had seen earlier that day — a handmade Icelandic ring that was my favorite color.”
All sorts of rings can be engagement rings, but she could tell immediately that this was not.
“But it was definitely not an engagement ring! Tripping over my words I said, ‘Oh.. it’s.. it’s beautiful’, because it was, but I will admit I was completely thrown off!”
Sneaky, sneaky Jacob wasn’t done, though.
“Within seconds, he started smiling mischievously, obviously catching my confusion. Right then, Jacob spun me around and said, ‘Alright, one more gift…"”
It sounds like he gave her the first ring in a surprise box to gauge her reaction. If she’d seemed terrified by the ring and relieved to see it was turquoise, he could have kept the engagement ring hidden away.
“And that is the moment he got down on one knee and asked the question I’d been longing to hear, ‘Will you marry me?’ He asked with a ring box he had hand built out of real wood and my dream ring.”
She didn’t exactly have to agonize over the decision.
“I said ‘YES!’ and leapt into his arms to hug him and we both cried.”
Remember that card that she wrote earlier, calling him her fiance?
“I snuck the card I’d written him out of my pocket, which he read right there, and then exclaimed, ‘You knew?!’ Which just made us both cry more.”
He hid the ring and she hid the card — it sounds like these two are a perfect match!
“He told me that he had been wanting to do it the entire trip, but he was simply waiting for the right moment to do it. Jacob had apparently had the ring in his coat pocket for five days as we traveled around Iceland!”
Hey, if you’re gonna hide a ring in your pocket, it might as well be winter in a country so cold that it has “ice” in the name.

This Man Got Arrested. Then He Proposed. In Handcuffs.
Getting John Stamos to help you propose is pretty cool.
But not letting a pair of handcuffs or a possible forthcoming jail sentence get in the way of a proposal is downright epic.
On July Fourth of this year, a 35-year old Oklahoma man named Brandon Thompson was celebrating both his birthday and the birthday of this great country.
However, the celebration took a decidedly negative turn after a police officer recognized Thompson as someone with six felony warrants out for his arrest.
The officer and his partner proceeded to arrest Thompson on his driveway, going so far as to handcuff him… before he made an unexpected request.
"I asked the officer if I could propose," Thompson told CNN. "The officer said, "You want to do what?" and I said, "I want to propose to her.""
One of the officers on the scene was wearing a body camera, so this very romantic and wholly stunning proposal was recorded for all to eventually see online.
"It took us by surprise that he asked if he could do it," said officer Lincoln Anderson, who told Thompson the handcuffs had to remain on – but that they could be switched to the front position.
This was good enough for Thompson.
He got down on one knee in front of Leandria Keith (with a cigarette still in his mouth!) and simply said: "I love you. Will you be my wife, please?"
After Keith said yes, and after Thompson was taken into custody before being released on bond and told to appear at a hearing on July 17, the 35-year old explained to CNN:
"When you"re in love with somebody and you know that you want to spend the rest of your life with them, you just want them to know how you feel
"I wanted a new start for me and with the police taking me to jail I didn"t have to worry about my warrants anymore."
Watch the unusual proposal take place below:

An Alabama City Proposed A Ban On Sagging Pants Last Month — And Now, They"ve Doubled Down With A Crazy NEW Sexist Proposal!
Why should we just stop at banning sagging pants?!?!
That’s the question the tiny town of Dadeville, Alabama is asking after a council meeting this week!
[ Related: Remember The Football Player Who Pooped His Pants Mid-Game? ]
Reports are coming out that the city’s council — which last month heard a proposal by one of its members to ban sagging pants within the city limits — is now seeking to even up the playing field against women!
Dadeville City Councilwoman Stephanie Kelley said men shouldn’t be the only ones singled out by a ban — so she proposed adding short shorts and mini-skirts to the banned list, too!!
According to the Alex City Outlook, Kelley spoke at the council’s meeting this week, saying:
“My concern is it should be for everybody. I think for the girls, with these shorts up so high looking like under garments and dresses so short, I don’t want us to be showing favoritism.”
City Councilman Frank Goodman — who originally proposed the sagging pants ban last month and got this whole debacle started — added:
“It is about respect. Who is going to respect you if you don’t respect yourself. The reason I brought this up is I think people deserve respect when they are in public. I think slacking is disrespectful. I think it gives our younger generation the wrong impression of what is cool.”
Yeah! Respect and equal treatment! Ban things for both men and women! As long as the city council is going to do dumb stuff, at least it’s rooted in equality right?? LOLz!!
Town attorney Robin Reynolds — who, big surprise, was also totally down with those squares in the city council — said at the meeting he’d be happy to write in the additional ban for women:
“If the council wants me to write in something for the females – it will take a little more creativity on my part.”
Good luck, Robin. We’re so sure you’ll craft a masterpiece. Ha!!!
Hey Dadeville — banning men from literally showing their underwear is not the same as banning women from wearing clothes that don’t even slightly reveal anything.
What do U think about this ludicrous idea??
