Hans Zimmer Proposes To Partner Onstage At O2 Arena Concert In London
Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer was wrapping up his show Thursday at London’s O2 Arena when he decided to improv.
After performing tracks from The Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dune and more, Zimmer asked partner Dina De Luca to join him onstage.
“Why did I bring you up here? I was going to ask you something really important. Did you lock the back door? Is the milk in the fridge? Do we have any sorbet in the freezer?” joked Zimmer.
He then answered his own question by asked her, “Will you marry me?”
From her reaction and that of Zimmer, it seems De Luca said “Yes.”
