Met Gala proposal: Who got engaged on the 2022 red carpet?
THE MET Gala 2022 not only succeeded to exhibit fabulous costumes but also gave a sweet proposal.
The red carpet was also filled with beautiful costumes and an array of celebrities.
Who got engaged at the 2022 Met Gala?
Former assembly candidate Bobby Digi Olisa stepped onto the red carpet and proposed to Commissioner of New York City Cultural Affairs, Laurie Cumbo.
Olisa, a leader chief at Canvas Institute, created Canvas Institute and the Island Voice to serve the community and support immigrant families in his hometown, North Shore, Staten Island.
With similar intentions, Cumbo founded the Museum of Contemporary African Diaspora Arts.
The lovebirds looked excited as they stood by the lights and cameras.
“You know, it’s always like trying to wait for the right time. So when is the right time considering everything that’s going on worldwide? So I was just like, ‘Today we’re going to make it happen,’” said Olisa to The Associated Press.
Cumbo removed her left-hand glove to let Olisa put the engagement ring.
What did Laurie Combo say about her engagement?
"You wait for this moment your whole life almost and for it to be right here, it was everything that I thought it would be," Cumbo shared.
Cumbo shared she interned at the Metropolitan Museum of Art at age 15, and is now standing on the red carpet as a politician and a fiancée.
