Who said romance was dead? If this lovingly presented marriage proposal is anything to go by, it’s alive and kicking.
And according to London police, the delighted bride-to-be said yes.
A Met police helicopter crew patrolling the night skies witnessed the event after seeing the words “will you marry me?” spelt out in candles in a north-west London park, the BBC reports.
The chopper’s thermal imaging cameras even caught the ardent suitor getting down on bended knee in Gladstone Park, Dollis Hill.
The Metropolitan Police Twitter account MPSinthesky: “We think we have just seen the most romantic guy in north London.”
The police also tweeted: “Who were the lucky couple in Gladstone Park just before midnight? #willyoumarryme?”
Despite the images going viral, the identity of the loved-up couple remains a mystery.
The plot thickened after the anonymous__d Twitter account posted an image appearing to show a man and woman hugging at the site of the candlelit proposal.
The account also tweeted: “The happy couple like to remain anonymous. They wanted to share the good news with @MPSinthesky and end the suspense with a happy ending.”
