The Engagement Story

Brian Austin Green proposed during a surprise birthday party Burgess hosted in June. The proposal involved Green's children, including Journey River, aged 7, who held a red Cartier box containing the engagement ring. Green asked Burgess, "Will you spend the rest of your life with us?" and she happily accepted. They kept the engagement a secret for two months before announcing it on the podcast.

Announcing the Engagement


The couple also involved their children in the engagement announcement on Instagram by sharing a video of their hands together, including the engagement ring. They explained their decision to wait two months before going public, citing a generational gap and a desire to announce the engagement in a meaningful way.

Plans for the Wedding
