"I wasn't expecting it at the moment it happened at all, didn't have any idea, nobody knew! He had told my dad on my birthday about two weeks earlier and I've got to tell you, I was like, 'What's happening with us?' It was on my mind, 'We've been together a long time now, what's going on?' I was in that place in my head.

She also revealed that the proposal was almost unable to go ahead, as Blake wanted to propose on their ranch in Oklahoma. She said: "We had this trip planned to come to Oklahoma and it was one of those COVID - not a fight - but like, 'Maybe we should just cancel the trip, this is too hard, everyone has to get tested,' you can't make plans anymore.

"We were this close to cancelling the trip but we ended up making it all happen, and we were all here at the ranch and basically it happened but everyone was trying to make it not happen, and meanwhile Blake has this ring in the side of his truck!"

Speaking about the special moment, she explained: "Out of nowhere he has this ring in a cabinet when I opened it. He said, 'Get the fire starter,' so I opened the cabinet and there's this ring there, and I was like, 'Are you serious?' and we both started bawling! Everyone was in shock!"
