Married at First Sight stars David and Madison are officially engaged following their public cheating scandal.

“My best friends are engaged and I haven’t stopped crying,” a friend of the couple wrote via Instagram Stories on Saturday, March 14, later reshared on Madison’s own Instagram Stories.

The reality TV star then reshared a series of posts from her nearest and dearest during a St. Patrick’s Day-turned-surprise engagement party in honor of the couple.

“Congrats to two real ones on their engagement,” one friend wrote via their Instagram Stories, also reshared by Madison. “Love you guys.”

“Love at first sight congrats you two,” another wrote.

“Congratulations to one of my fave gals on her engagement to her soulmate!” another posted.

Madison later shared a video of the engagement itself on her Instagram Stories, showing the pair sitting at a table eating dessert while David rolled what at first glance appeared to be an oversized dice.

The reality star then grabbed the dice and got down on one knee, opening the box to reveal an engagement ring. Madison quickly covered her mouth in disbelief as her fiancé asked the big question. After saying yes, the pair kissed and David slid the ring onto her finger.

Of course, fans of the hit dating show Married at First Sight will remember the controversial pair, who found themselves in hot water after they developed a connection despite being married to other people. Experts Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Pastor Cal Roberson and Dr. Pia Goff initially paired Madison up with Allen, while David was paired up with Michelle.

At one point, David sent a text message to Madison saying he “wanted to eat her up” while still married to Michelle. David claimed that he was just shooting his shot as a man with “needs” that weren’t being met. The pair ultimately decided to end their respective marriages and pursued each other instead.

“Obviously, I think we would both change everything,” Madison later said, expressing her regret over how the pair handled the situation. “I will never regret following my heart, but I will regret not having the courage and the confidence to say it loudly when I should have.”
