Paige Lorenze reveals why Tommy Paul’s Nantucket proposal stayed private
Paige Lorenze, who studied at Parsons School of Design and founded the lifestyle brand Dairy Boy in 2021, later spoke about the proposal on her YouTube channel. She explained why the moment was kept private.
“So, I actually told Tommy a while ago, when the time came, that I didn’t want any of the proposal filmed. No photos, no videos. And I think that might be a surprise to some people, but it was really important to me that this moment was just the two of us. So much of my life is filmed, and honestly, so is his in a different way.”Tommy Paul proposed during a beach walk in Nantucket, where the couple had rented a small cottage. The plan almost got spoiled by bad weather, but the skies cleared just in time. Lorenze said the day turned out even more perfect than she imagined:“I felt like I was surrounded by love, not only by Tommy. It was the craziest feeling. Tommy and I both have never felt a feeling like that before. It felt like a dream.”She added:“It was supposed to be super rainy that day, and ended up being perfectly golden and beautiful. It was just such a special moment, and honestly, I’m just really excited for this next chapter in my life.”
