Macklemore & Ryan Lewis gay fan proposes to girlfriend onstage

Hitmaking duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis made a wish come true for a couple of fans in New York’s Central Park as they welcomed a lesbian fan and her girlfriend on stage for a dream proposal.

It was during the group’s Good Morning America performance where comic warm-up act Tom Kelly spotted fan Val with a rainbow-coloured sign reading “Can I Propose to My Girlfriend On Stage?”.

Knowing the band’s strong marriage equality stance, Kelly happily obliged, saying: "I pulled Val and Kara up to the stage. In front of over 5,000 Macklemore fans, Val pulled the trigger. Val had a ring ready to go. It was my first time officiating an engagement in seven years of doing warm up for TV shows.”

The pair also got to meet their idols and were given a stage-side view of the show.
