When a prankster boyfriend decided to pop the question to the love of his life, she knew him so well that she could not be convinced it was real.
Chelsea Newble, 23, was at the Santa’s Enchanted Forest theme park in Miami, Florida, when her boyfriend Chris Morley, 24, suddenly dropped to one knee to pop the question.
The big moment was caught on video, showing Chelsea at a food stand at the park, holding a stuffed Scooby Doo doll and some cash for snacks.
Yeah, right! Chelsea Newble, 23, was so used to her boyfriend Chris Morley, 24, pulling pranks on her that she couldn’t believe it when he proposed
Really? She is seen in a video snatching the ring out of his hand and insisting ‘Are you being serious right now? No, you’re not’
She turns around and spots her boyfriend kneeling with a ring box held out towards her, but instead of bursting into a happy declaration of love or bursting into tears, she all but rolls her eyes.
‘You’re so funny. You’re being so funny right now,’ she says. ‘Are y’all serious. Are you being serious right now? No, you’re not.’
She snatches the ring out of his hand, shoves him playfully on the shoulder and turns to her mother and best friend nearby saying: ‘Why is he fooling me right now?’
As everyone around her looks at her with total seriousness, she almost wells up before shaking it off and once again insisting: ‘No you’re not!’
