The crowd quickly realized something special was happening as Taylor addressed the audience and spoke about their relationship. He shared how, over the years, he had often had to share his wife with her fans on holidays and special occasions. With a smile and heartfelt tone, he asked the audience for a moment to have her back for himself, explaining that there was something he needed to make right in their marriage.
Taylor revealed that despite being married for more than a decade, he had never formally proposed to Fantasia. Determined to change that, he poured out his emotions in a touching speech about their journey together, reflecting on the prayers, challenges, and growth they’ve experienced as a couple.

Then came the moment that brought Fantasia — and many in the audience — to tears. Taylor got down on one knee and presented her with a new engagement ring. The singer was visibly overwhelmed, dropping to her knees in disbelief as the crowd erupted with cheers. Taylor helped her stand and gently replaced her wedding band with the new ring, which featured a meaningful detail: one carat for each year they’ve been married.
The proposal marked a full-circle moment for the couple, whose love story has always moved at its own pace. Fantasia and Taylor first met in 2015 and decided to marry just three weeks later in a private courthouse ceremony. At the time, the wedding was kept quiet and spontaneous, something Fantasia later described as freeing and special. They eventually celebrated their union with a formal ceremony on a later anniversary.

Over the years, the pair have blended their families, supported one another through personal and professional challenges, and welcomed a daughter together in 2021 after a long fertility journey. Their relationship has often been described as deeply rooted in faith, prayer, and partnership.
Taylor’s public proposal served as a heartfelt reminder of their enduring bond. In front of a packed audience on Valentine’s Day, he chose to honor their love story in a way neither of them will ever forget — proving that even after 11 years of marriage, romance can still find a way to surprise you.
