‘To escort me to my very own charming, back to where our stars first collided, and now it is full circle. At the same table we met by chance, this time he made it not by chance, but by choice.

‘Down on one knee, he said four words and I said yes.’

Responding to William’s poem, Ohanian wrote on social media, ‘You made me the happiest man on the planet.’
