“So, I have some news,” the future groom began in the clip. “You wanna see it?” he asked into the camera before showing off Burnett’s hand sporting a new diamond sparkler. “Yup, it’s official! We’re engaged,” he gushed.
“We’ve been ready for this step for a little while, but it was really just I had a lot of things that I wanted to get done to make it really special,” the reality star elaborated. “I don’t know if I succeeded or not, but it was a lot of things.”
According to photos shared in the footage, it looks like John-David got down on one knee on a heart made of roses. Behind him, a marquee read, “Abbie, Will You Marry Me?” There were also airplanes posed around the room for quite a picturesque atmosphere.
“We fell in love very quickly,” John-David explained in June. “It’s been a wonderful journey thus far, and [we’re] taking the next step to move on to a courtship.” Now, the final steps toward marriage have officially begun.
Meanwhile, the Duggar family sounds just as excited for the next member to tie the knot.
“We are thrilled to announce the engagement of John-David and Abbie!” a statement read on the family’s website. “They are a wonderful match and make a beautiful couple! Abbie is a lovely young woman, full of tenderness and compassion. She has a deep love for the Lord and we are so delighted that John-David has asked her to be his wife!”
