A woman scuppered her own proposal four times before her boyfriend was finally able to pop the question - without her ruining it. Frankie Clark, 27, kept spoiling the moment her partner, Andy, 39, was going to propose to her - by making jokes about him putting a ring on her finger.
Frankie ruined the moment Andy, an inverting operations manager, was first going to get down on one knee when she swapped a day with him to hang out with some friends who were visiting from Ireland. When Andy made plans to pop the question on New Year’s Eve, Frankie decided to head to bed early ahead of a singing gig she had the next day.
She shot down ideas of him proposing after she came off stage the next day when she said it “would steal her thunder”. On his fourth attempt, Andy was about to pull out the ring while the couple were taking self-timer photos on a walk, before Frankie jumped in joking “now would be a good time to propose.”
