In the thrilling finale of 'The Golden Bachelorette', Chock Chapple went down on one knee and proposed to Joan Vassos on a beach in Bora Bora. He popped the big question to Joan with a stunning Neil Lane ring.

Before popping the question and opening Neil Lane's ring box, Chock told Joan, "I've been waiting forever to do this. Joan, will you marry me?" Joan ended up accepting Chock's proposal by saying, "Of course, I'll marry you." Soon after, she handed her final rose to Chock. 

After their dreamy beachside proposal, the newly engaged couple video-called Joan's mom who shared her surprise and happiness at meeting her daughter's new fiance. "I never in a million years thought I'd feel love like this again. Ever," Joan shared.

Acordin to Jesse Palmer, the host of the ABC dating show, Joan and Chock are still together. Since their engagement, the couple has had the opportunity to spend some quality time away from the cameras. “We cooked, we did crossword puzzles, I mean we did everything,” Chock revealed.
