The partner of GWS Giants captain Toby Greene was left in shock before she gave the footballer a priceless response to his proposal.
Greene and partner Georgia Stirton are celebrating their engagement after the AFL star pulled off an elaborate, romantic proposal plan.
Greene dropped a knee while holidaying during the AFL off-season recently and it was obvious from Stirton’s stunned appearance that she never saw it coming.

A video shared on Instagram showed Greene had positioned rose petals in the shape of a heart at a beachside location.
Greene was holding the couple’s daughter Isla when the magic moment happened.
Her caption of the video was priceless.
“Apparently not a prank,” she wrote.
The video shows Greene and Stirton shared a laugh together before the diamond ring was delicately placed on her ring finger.
To make the moment even more special, family members were there to see it first hand with one spectator capturing the moment on camera.
“Just be grateful there’s no audio because all I was saying was ‘what the f’ 20 times’,’’ Stirton replied to a comment on the post.
The adorable couple have been together since 2020.
Greene and Stirton in February celebrated the birth of Isla.
The couple dropped the news about falling pregnant at the 2023 Brownlow Medal.
The footballer said at the time said Isla was his “new best friend”.
The couple’s happiness was celebrated across the footy landscape with teammates and stars of the competition sharing messages of congratulations.
Former teammates Jeremy Cameron and Tim Taranto were among those wellwishers.
“Unbelievable. Congratulations guys,’ Geelong forward Cameron wrote.
Taranto commented: Unreal guys”.
Former Giants captain Callan Ward wrote: “Woohoo, congratulations”.
Former Channel 7 Sunrise presenter and GWS Giants director Melissa Doyle wrote: “OMG. So super happy for you both”.
The happy moment will help put things into perspective for the 2023 All Australian captain after his club suffered back-to-back heartbreaking losses during the finals series.
The Giants remain one of the favourites to win the flag in 2025.
