Jennifer Hudson’s Secret Second Proposal

Jennifer_hudson_fhg_84696376_300Seems like Jennifer Hudson wanted to give BF David Otunga a birthday surprise he wouldn’t soon forget! Five months after the Harvard lawyer turned pro wrestler proposed to her on her 27th birthday, she turned the tables—and popped him the question. (Ladies sick of waiting for your Mr. Right to ask the right question, grab your notebooks!) Making this repeat performance even more special, Hudson worked with high-end jeweler Neil Lane to personally design an engagement ring. Since she wanted something that felt studly, but still smacked of star style, they came up with a faceted platinum band—tricked out by five carats of bling!

But just because it was the second time around doesn’t mean the proposal went off without a hitch: When Jennifer Hudson went to slide the ring on Otunga’s finger, they discovered it was slightly too big. Not to worry, the happy couple returned together to the LA jeweler to have it resized. Seems like for this duo, practice makes perfect!

Females now days are just offer. Women have became very crucial about everybody and everything. Stop it please it is not a very good look. Jennifer Hudson had already said yes to David months ago. All she did was return the favor with the same amount of carats on his birthday to match her ring. There is nothing wrong with it even if she had asked him first for marriage. Give yourself a chance first. Who knows he might say yes.

What century is this? It is just plain RIDICULOUS that a woman wouldn't propose to a man. Doesn't anyone want gender equality?? WAKE UP WOMEN!

I did (subtly bring it up first) and have been married 25 years. You women who want to wait on a man to get tired of being single and propose, without any nudging, keep waiting sisters.... and (laugh) good luck.

Jennifer Hudson had already answered yes to marriage months before on her birthday when he proposed. All she did was return the sweat proposal back to him on his birthday with a custom made band to match hers with the same many of carats. There is nothing bad about returning a favor for a special someone in your life.
