When she entered the bedroom to help him look, Seb was instead down on one knee asking her to marry him! She said yes – of course.

Even though we had gone through many things in life, we always remained each other’s constant and knew that even in times when our communication wasn’t the best, we always had each other’s backs.

As we drifted together and spent more and more time together it was a slow realisation that I would love Abigail for the rest of my life.

And there it is, from just a coffee date to something that I want for my future.
