Gay Marine couple Matt and Russ, whose
YouTube videos have turned them into Internet celebrities, are
engaged to marry.
In the description of a new video
posted on RussMarine2014's
YouTube account, Russ wrote: “Matt completely surprised me by
proposing during my welcome home party. It turns out he had been
planning it for months. I am so happy!”
In the video, Matt is seen going down
on bended knee, presenting an engagement ring and asking: “Will you
marry me?”
A surprised Russ, just back from a
military operation in the desert, answers “yes.” The men share a
kiss and a hug as friends cheer them on, followed by a slow dance.

The men explained in an earlier video
how they started dating.
“There was no real defined line on
what our first date was, because we were good friends before we
started dating,” Russ said. “So, like, we hung out all the time.
And then we're like, 'Hey we're dating now.' Then we hung out all
the time afterward.”
