How did Macmillan propose to Rouge?

The couple dated for nine years before Macmillan proposed on 10 June 2024. Rouge was being baptised, with her family alongside her, when her boo got on one knee and asked for her hand in marriage.

In a previous interview, Macmillan said he had a whole speech planned but joked that he "went on like a babbling fool."

"I'm just glad she said yes, and it was in front of the family,” he said at the time.

Rouge then shared a sweet video of the proposal with her adoring fans, who were left in tears.

Just days before their close-knit engagement, Rouge also disclosed to fans that she had only been with Macmillan. She praised her parents for her upbringing.
