Overview

• Thorne’s Instagram post showed her on one knee surrounded by flowers, candles and heart-shaped balloons and included a caption summarizing their three-year timeline.
• The moment was framed as a reciprocal gesture because Emms had proposed to Thorne in May 2023 in California with a reportedly emerald-cut diamond ring.
• Social-media reaction split between users who criticized the role reversal—with comments such as “No normalicemos la propuesta de matrimonio”—and others who praised the act as an expression of empowerment.
• Thorne responded on her Instagram Stories by sharing commenters’ messages, calling the reactions “divertidísimos” and saying the decision was personal.
• Multiple outlets report plans for a country wedding in the U.K., although coverage notes that that detail has more limited corroboration.
