Acting legend Tom Hanks proved once again that he’s a legend for a good reason. Over the past weekend, he has helped a young couple get engaged at the Texas Book Festival held in Austin.
Hanks was at a talk about his latest book, Uncommon Type: Some Stories on Saturday. During the Q&A, Hanks read out a question he got from a man named Ryan McFarling: “Here’s Ryan’s question, and it’s for Nikki Young…’Nikki, will you marry me?'”
Nikki said yes in front of the actor and 1,000 other people.
And a surprise wedding proposal with the help of @tomhanks during his Q&A! Congratulations to the happy couple! ❤️ #txbookfest pic.twitter.com/GceDZsAN30
