Hit Spotify podcast Call Her Daddy's host Alex Cooper recently got engaged to her boyfriend, Matt Kaplan. The news was confirmed in a W Magazine interview that was published on Monday, April 24. Kaplan is the founder and CEO of Ace Entertainment and a former president of Awesomeness Films.
The interview revealed that Kaplan proposed to Cooper last month at their Los Angeles-based residence. The latter said that her now-fiance took her out, saying that there was a photoshoot and when she returned, she discovered that the entire house was decorated with candles and music was being played in the background.
Cooper went to search for Kaplan and discovered that the rooms were decorated with photos and the last one had a glass of champagne and a card that asked her to meet Kaplan by the Buddha statue in their home:
"He talked about our relationship and his love for me, and then he asked me to open the card sitting there and to follow the scavenger hunt around the house."
Cooper then went near the Buddha that was put in their house's courtyard and she saw Kaplan, who went down on a knee to propose to her.
