The just-concluded Emmy’s award was a spectacular one also given the fact that Oscar director, Glenn Weiss proposed to his girlfriend during his acceptance speech.
After speaking about his mother’s recent death, he slowly progressed to his proposal.
”I’m really grateful to be here but it’s bittersweet,” he started. “The person most proud at this moment would be my mom, and she passed away just two weeks ago. A part of my heart is broken, I don’t think it will ever be repaired. But she’s in me and she always will be. Mom always believed in finding the sunshine in things and she adored my girlfriend Jan Svendsen. Jan, you are the sunshine in my life. And Mom was right: don’t ever let go of your sunshine. You wonder why I don’t like to call you my girlfriend? Because I want to call you my wife.”
This got the audience totally excited and they applauded excitedly.
The lucky lady of the night (Jane) came up to the stage, of course, said yes, and Weiss put his mother’s ring on her finger in front of the entire crowd.
It was one amazing moment!
