My BFF proposed and now I get to hold him forever,” Gab wrote in the caption to the video and the photo, which showed her holding her hand over her face with the ring clear as day, and Brandon posing with a goofy expression behind her.
The Precious star called Brandon, “The funniest man I’ve ever met. The sweetest human to exist. @brandontour made up a song for when i put my bonnet on at night. The second I look a bit stressed and overwhelmed, he jumps into action to take over what he can for me. Every moment with him is a joy.”
