Isle of Wight: Couple get engaged during James Bay performance

Isle DO...

A lovestruck couple got engaged at the Isle of Wight Festival during James Bay’s performance, and he was over the moon about it…

As the singer performed his heartfelt balled ‘If You Ever Want To Be In Love’ on Saturday, a man got down on one knee at the front.

Thankfully the response was positive.

Afterwards Bay told Magic Radio: “I can’t stop telling people about it. They were just sort of down to the right of the stage. And I wasn’t sure…or else I would have probably said something.

“But after we came off stage and I asked my keyboard player – because he had seen it – and he brought it up as well. He said, ‘Yeah, I saw it’. He could see when the guy got down on one knee and all the crowd…

“She said yes, and the crowd around them went crazy.  It was really cool.”
