When Did Tommy Mallet Propose to Georgia Kousoulou?
Tommy proposed to girlfriend Georgia in February 2022 whilst on holiday in Mexico. He chose a romantic spot which overlooked the gorgeous coastline. The proposal was filmed during season two of their show Georgia & Tommy: Baby Steps and, when speaking to the crew, Tommy said, “Since having the baby with Georgia I’ve realised she’s like superwoman, she’s the best mum ever.”
Whilst some celebrities keep their name after marriage, Tommy explained that having the same name as him and their son is something that is really important to Georgia.
Taking her by complete surprise, Georgia said, “It was a blur. All I remember is saying ‘are you joking?’, he actually caught me off guard!” She added, “I was so shocked, I honestly feel like I would have known because I’m such a detective.”
When talking about it afterwards, Tommy revealed to Georgia that he got the inspiration for the proposal from Kourtney Kardashian’s engagement and had snuck round to Georgia’s dad’s house to ask for permission. It’s safe to say Georgia did not see this coming, but saying yes was always the plan.
Explaining why he chose that particular spot, Tommy said: “Because this is where we’ve had most of our good memories and it’s our happy place, that’s why I waited so long because I needed to get out here to do it.”
