Magician's Surprise: Diamond Ring Appears from Smoke, Leads to 'Yes!'

In a dazzling twist during a live performance at The Magic Circle's theatre in central London, magician Marc Oberon proposed to his long-time stage partner, Emily Yarrow. The audience was captivated as Oberon, a world champion magician, presented a diamond ring that appeared from a puff of smoke.

Yarrow, who was performing their signature mind-reading trick and wearing a blindfold, correctly identified the ring. Oberon then dropped to one knee, confessing his love and asking Yarrow to marry him. The proposal, which occurred during Saturday's matinee performance, was confirmed to be real, much to the audience's delight.

The couple, who have been together for nearly three years, met on a cruise ship where they were both entertainers. Yarrow, a soprano singer, and Oberon, a magician since childhood, have since created a joint act. This surprising proposal was the culmination of a year-long plan by Oberon, who confessed it was his most nerve-wracking performance.

Yarrow expressed complete shock and elation, noting she had no idea the proposal was coming, despite joking about rings during their act. Oberon's mother and son were present in the audience, witnessing the heartwarming, unscripted moment that concluded the show with cheers and applause.
