The marriage proposal for the two stars occurred in Venice, Italy. On Thursday, Val Chmerkovskiy declared on Twitter, ‘I can’t wait to make you my wife…’

His post was accompanied by two images of his proposal. In one image he was seen kneeling and supposedly asking Johnson to be his wife.

Their engagement comes just over a month after Johnson hinted that she was waiting for a proposal from Chmerkovskiy. During a Facebook live interview with Entertainment Tonight, Johnson joked that time was "a-ticking" for him to ask her for her hand in marriage.
