You can feel the joy radiating out of this video. King posted a reel to her Instagram page. The scene sounds like something out of a soap opera. She walked along the beach with her boyfriend, Chris Copier. The couple brought along their beloved dogs.

But Copier no longer wants to be King’s boyfriend anymore. He wants to be her husband. He got down on one knee and popped the question. The soap alum jumped up and down. She excitedly said, “I will.” King jumped down and kissed Copier on the lips. 

“Best day of my life [Chris Copier]. I can’t wait to marry your ass,” she captioned the video.
