YouTuber MrBeast has announced his engagement to girlfriend Thea Booysen.
The 26-year-old revealed that he’d proposed on Christmas Day, sharing photos of the moment he went down on one knee.
Mr Beast, real name Jimmy Donaldson, is the world’s most popular YouTuber with 340m subscribers.
Fiancée Thea, originally from South Africa, also has her own channel, TheaBeasty, with almost 40,000 subscribers.
Now living in the US, the 27-year-old also streams games on Twitch and is a published author.
In an interview with People magazine, MrBeast said he asked Thea to marry him while her family were visiting.
Although he’s known for his elaborate stunts online, he told the magazine he wanted a “really private and intimate” proposal.
The couple shared photos and footage of themselves and their dog wearing matching MrBeast-branded festive jumpers.
According to People, the couple say they’re not planning a big wedding.
“We’re thinking of doing it somewhere on an island where we’re far away from just about everybody,” Thea told the magazine.
“We’re not going to try and have a big, extravagant wedding. It’s going to be nice, but it’s certainly going to be intimate [with] close family and friends.”
