Safaree Samuels’ wish has come true.
Safaree “stepped up” and popped the question. The Love & Hip Hop: New York star proposed to his new girlfriend and fellow Love & Hip Hop cast member, Erica Mena, at her home in Atlanta on Christmas Eve.
The engagement was a romantic candlelit production, complete with rose petals and a live performance from 112 backed by a live band, TMZ reports.
And he didn’t skimp on the ring either. Safaree reportedly proposed with a $175,000 sparkler boasting 14-carats set in platinum, which he personally designed with Trax NYC. Family and friends were on hand to witness (and record) the romantic moment.
In the footage, Mena appears to be crying after Safaree drops down to one knee, surprising her with a ring. The couple have only been linked for around a month, but things are clearly moving pretty fast.
A rep confirmed the engagement telling TMZ, “2019 is the year of new beginnings and it’s safe to say our guy Safaree stepped up and put a ring on it.”
Safaree is the latest member of the LHHNY troop to get engaged behind Joe Budden and Cyn Santana, and Juelz Santana and Kimbella.
