I think out of all the proposals I've seen, this is my favorite because they're both crying tears of joy and it seems the most genuine.

Congratulations Val and Jobba! What a heartfelt and loving surprise engagement. Both of you have a wonderful brother from another mother-Ryan! God bless all of you and your families!

[@larshongaylor898]

I decided that I would try and find Val's proposal on KZbin. I watched the show that day her fiancé proposed to her. I am so excited for them both. Watching "Windy City Live" has been such an inspiration to me. Ryan and Val are just awesome! I love them! It hasn't been the same since I can't watch the show Monday through Thursday. "The Tamron Hall" show is great, but I miss Val and Ryan. Congratulations to you both, Ryan and Val on your next great moves. Thank you for such wonderful content and bringing joy and inspiration to me. Watching Val's wedding proposal has me in tears of joy and hope. Congratulations to Val and her husband! You both look beautiful together.

[@user-yv3ik7fp3n]

Gee. Val looks too young to have such grown up kids. They are all a class act. May God bless you all with a happy, safe, and prosperous life. This was such a nice surprise by nice people to a nice and pretty lady. Thanks for sharing. This made me smile.

[@DearMsFabulous]

Wooo val was tearing that dress up....u go girrrl👍

[@demetragandy5225]

NICE!!!

[@elizabethwashington9168]

He did not explain why he "Loves" her...He only stated that he saw her and fell in love...that seems so shallow to me...she is beautiful, but she's also smart, nurturing and cares about her community... I'm happy for her, but not convinced about his sincerity...She said yes, so my opinion doesn't matter, but I hope he's not playin' around because he's too damn old to not be able to express why he loves her...Congratulations Val!

[@AnaSpeirs]

This man used to run heavy with R. KELLY. He allegedly helped recruit young girls & women for the man's disposal. Val has low self esteem and just wanted to be married so bad. She married definitely married down financially, socially, and intellectually 🤦‍♀️

[@elizabethwashington9168]

@@AnaSpeirs I felt something was off in my spirit...thank you for sharing his truth...Hopefully she will remove the veil of "I'se married nah" and disguise to see the truth for herself before it's too late...

I know they are both in relationships ( Ryan dating some girl in her late 20s,) and Val is engaged, but I’m lowkey convinced Ryan and Val dated at some point just didn’t work out lol
