“Lainey Olivia Duncan, you are the love of my life,” he told his shocked girlfriend.

“You have been with me since day one. I knew you were special since our first date when I said to you, ‘I want to go to the Olympics’ and you, without question, said, ‘Absolutely go for it.’”

“You are stunningly beautiful, ferociously intelligent — your kindness is leaps and bounds,” he continued. “I don’t know anyone that doesn’t love you.”

The couple’s family and friends carrying 2,738 yellow roses, one for each day of the couple’s Snapchat streak throughout their years together, also made an appearance.

“I want to spend the rest of my life with you and raise a family together,” he proposed, down on one knee. “Lainey, will you marry me?”

She emotionally answered: “Yes!”

“I am so, so happy,” she said while looking at her new ring. “This is the best day of my life.”

“I got the gold and the girl, and she got the diamond,” Justin said. Congratulations to the happy couple!
