Mike Heiter and Leyla Lahouar got engaged live on “Celebrity Big Brother”. These celebrities also used the big stage for this.
Mike Heiter (32) and Leyla Lahouar (28) are reality TV stars by profession and, as Instagram influencers, also let their followers share a lot of their private lives. Now the viewers could see how he asked her the question of all questions.
The big brother made the suggestion in the consulting room, whereupon Heiter said, somewhat surprised: “Awesome. Actually, everyone says yes. It’s a violent moment. Old Swede, what a situation you’re putting me in here. It’s an awesome situation. Violent , violent, violent! But that’s something cool, something extraordinary. I’m ready anyway, woah.” But because he was “ready anyway”, he didn’t hesitate for long and went to his loved one in the container living room with “champagne glasses and bubbly” and a big red heart with the inscription “Love”. When Leyla turned the heart over, it said “Marry me.”
Mike got on his knees in front of her and asked for her hand. “Is this real now?” she always asked. “We’re engaged now, darling,” he confirmed, to which she cheered, “I’m going to be a bride.”

The station first showed Kerth’s farewell to the show. But the shock of the end certainly passed quickly after she was able to run to her loved one and hug him. “I missed you like crazy. Seeing you on TV and not being able to talk to you was crazy. Because I love you so much. And I’m nervous right now, as you can see,” Terenzi said. Kerth replied that she was also nervous now and asked: “What’s going on here?” Then he asked her if she wanted to marry him.
After Terenzi took out the engagement ring and got on her knees, she happily replied, “I can’t believe it. Yes, I do.” After a heartfelt kiss, Kerth beamed: “I like the title ‘Mrs. Terenzi’ better than jungle queen. I’m really happy to swap it […] We’re engaged, dude.”

Folk music star Stefan Mross (48) asked his then partner Anna-Carina Woitschack (31) the question of all questions in December 2019. But his “My dear Anna, my little angel, I would like to ask you, my Anna: Do you want to be my wife?” he breathed, not in intimate togetherness. Instead, all the makers and viewers of the TV show “Advent Festival of 100,000 Lights” (Das Erste) were there live in presenter Florian Silbereisen’s (43) Saturday evening show.
She said yes and the two actually got married live on a TV show. The civil wedding took place in June 2020 in the “Schlagerlovestory” in Media City Leipzig. In November 2022, the couple announced their separation.
Klubbb3 star Christoff De Bolle and his Ritchie at “Schlagerboom”
Mross was not the first celebrity to provide a romantic engagement moment on a TV show hosted by presenter Florian Silbereisen.
Silbereisen’s Klubbb3 bandmate Christoff De Bolle (48) asked his partner Ritchie for his hand in marriage on the TV show “Schlagerbooom” (Das Erste) in October 2018 in front of an audience of millions. “Ritchie, since I’ve known you, it’s been clear to me: You’re the love of my life. Today millions of people are watching, and I want to show everyone how much I love you. And that’s why I’m asking you the most important question of my life. Do you want to Marry me?” he asked in Dutch.
Ritchie said yes, but the two didn’t get married. Instead, they announced their separation in early summer 2021. “Of course I am very sad about the end of this great love,” the singer confirmed to Bild.de. But he doesn’t regret his TV proposal: “It was very romantic and we firmly believed in forever love. Unfortunately, things have turned out differently.”
Menowin Fröhlich and Senay nailed it in the “Summer House of the Stars”.
The “DSDS” runner-up from 2010 Menowin Fröhlich (37) used their joint participation in the reality show “The Summer House of the Stars – Battle of the Celebrity Couples” (RTL) in 2019 for his application. Shortly before his voluntary move out in mid-August, he proposed marriage to his girlfriend Senay on his knees.
“For me, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me in my entire life. You welcomed a monster into your family back then, even though you were the dearest people in the world. It took so many years for me to become that human , who I am now. That’s why I want to ask you today if you want to be my wife,” he said on the show… The two said yes that same year.
Theresia Fischer and Thomas married in the “Germany’s Next Top Model” finale
Ex-“Germany’s Next Top Model” candidate Theresia Fischer (32) and her then boyfriend Thomas were even married live in May 2019 in Düsseldorf in the final broadcast of the ProSieben casting show by presenter Heidi Klum (51).
The young model previously surprised his friend by appearing on the catwalk in an opulent wedding dress. When the two of them stood in front of “registrar” Klum after a few confusing moments and small changes, the bride made sure: “Are we saying yes together here today?” Her Thomas replied: “Yes, we do. Do you want to be my wife?” There it was finally, the proposal on the show. The couple officially married shortly afterwards. The two announced their separation in 2022. In an interview with “Bunte.de” she admitted that she now regrets the public step. “It certainly wasn’t the right path I took back then,” she said. It was “not a good start to married life” for her and her husband.
She is currently fighting for victory in the “Sommerhaus der Stars” with her current partner Stefan Kleiser.
First marriage proposal in the “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” story
In February 2019, no celebrity proposed on television, but millions of viewers were still there when candidate Benjamin Lange made the first marriage proposal in the history of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” (RTL) said into the phone.
When he finally got his Svenja on the line, she unfortunately didn’t believe him: “Svenja, I love you. Do you want to marry me?” – “Don’t kid me!” – “Do you want to marry me?” – “Yeah, but you’re kidding me.” – “Mr. Jauch, just say something,” pleaded Benjamin. When moderator Günther Jauch (68) then confirmed everything, she agreed. The wedding was planned for the end of November. As the two confirmed to the “Bild” newspaper in May 2020, they actually got married. “We celebrated our wedding on November 30th with 100 guests in a large hall, there was schnitzel and roast beef,” he said, adding: “I would do it that way again.”
“Ironman” winner asks his Julia after the finish
Triathlete Patrick Lange (38) proposed to his girlfriend Julia Hofmann immediately after crossing the finish line at the “Ironman” competition in Hawaii in October 2018. “I started running and thought to myself, that’s what I’m going to do today. That just really drove me and motivated me so much. She’s simply the love of my life. From the first second,” he said afterwards on ZDF.
She accepted the proposal and in the summer of 2019 the two entered the harbor of marriage together.
Proposal without a happy ending
However, presenter Monica Lierhaus (54, “Still me: My way back to life”) has no good memories of her marriage proposal. After her acceptance speech at the Golden Camera 2011, she asked her long-time partner Rolf Hellgardt the question of all questions. “I actually just wanted to thank Rolf for everything he did. But maybe it was the wrong place and the wrong time,” she once told ARD in an interview. “I wouldn’t do that again because he didn’t have a chance to say no.”
Although he said yes, the two announced their separation in May 2015 after 18 years together. “Without the illness, I wouldn’t be single,” Lierhaus said with certainty in an interview with the magazine “Gala” in October 2015. After brain surgery, the presenter was in a coma in 2009, but she fought her way back to life and learned to talk and walk again.
