Australian ballroom dancer Sharna Burgess and American actor Brian Austin Green have announced their engagement. The news broke on September 22's episode of the iHeart radio's podcast show Old·ish where the duo appeared together. While speaking to co-host Randy Spelling, Sharna Burgess said:

“He proposed to me. We’ve been engaged for a minute. We’ve been engaged for like two months.”

Adding to this, Brian Austin Green said that he popped the big question in July 2023 during his surprise 50th birthday party.

“I was like, that’s a ‘perfect place to do it.' She’d never see it coming,” he said.

Sharna Burgess then recalled Brian pulling her aside and heading up to the bedroom as the party began to die down. The Dancing with the Stars star said she started realizing that "this feels like a moment.” When they entered the room, Brian Austin Green unexpectedly called out for his kids Noah (10), Journey (7), and Zane (1).

"Noah is holding Zane, and Journey is holding this little red Cartier box, and they all come in there and they stand next to [Brian]. And he takes the box from Journey and he opens it up to me and he says, ‘Will you spend the rest of your life with us?',” she recalled.
