It’s 2024, and men aren’t the only ones proposing nowadays!
Just ask Gilbert Arenas‘ fiancée … who returned the favor, asking the former NBA star to marry her just weeks after he got down on one knee asking her the same question.
Confusing, we know. Here’s a breakdown.
Arenas — who played 11 seasons in the NBA — asked his longtime girlfriend Melli Monaco to marry him last month at the Eiffel Tower … with a massive diamond ring, which the musician/YouTuber revealed on Instagram.
Monaco decided she was in the mood to reciprocate … and while the couple was hangin’ out at a nightclub with friends on Monday, a bunch of bottle girls walked up with a sign that read “Men Wear Engagement Rings Too”
Arenas, as you can see, was highly confused … that is until he saw Monaco holdin’ an engagement ring. Gil gladly accepted … going crazy after she put it on his finger.
“[Monaco] surprised me with an engagement ring 🤯😏😏,” Arenas said in the IG post. “Got me feeling like a #Baddie 🤷🏾♂️ City Boys they’re giving us engagement rings now 💯😂.”
Monaco and the 3x NBA All-Star began dating last year after Arenas shot his shot during her live stream.
Congrats!!!!
