Another New Kid is off the market.
Jonathan Knight proposed to longtime love Harley Rodriguez while on vacation in Africa with their mothers. Knight broke the news to the world by calling bandmate Donnie Wahlberg’s wife, SiriusXM’s own Jenny McCarthy.
“Oh, my God! I have the chills! I’m going to cry,” McCarthy said as Knight described popping the question on an evening raft ride down the Zambezi River.
“There was a super moon on top of that, so it was just absolutely beautiful, so romantic, and I just said, ‘Now’s the time to do it,'” Knight shared. “With two guys, it’s always hard, like, who proposes, who asks? And I think that was always our problem the whole time. I’ve been waiting for him to ask, he’s probably been waiting for me to ask, and it just gets to a point where it’s like, okay, somebody’s got to do it.”
