MrBeast is getting married! The 27-year-old YouTuber, born Jimmy Donaldson, proposed to his 27-year-old girlfriend, Thea Booysen, on Christmas last year — and she showed off her ring on the red carpet less than a year later at the September 7, 2025, MTV Video Music Awards.
“My family flew out from South Africa for Christmas, and we were celebrating at our house with both families here,” Booysen previously told People. “We were opening presents, and for the very last one, he asked me to close my eyes because it was a surprise.” When Booysen opened her eyes, she “of course said yes” and was “extremely excited.”
