Three live television proposals go horribly wrong

Many use Valentine’s Day as an opportunity to express their love for their significant other, and some even decide to take their relationship to the next level by proposing.

That’s exactly what three women decided to do live on British television show, Loose Women, on Thursday. But popping the question to their partners didn’t exactly go to plan.

As the host of the show, Christine Lampard, explained to the audience watching at home there were three men unaware what was about to happen.

However, it seems Christine was also in the dark about the fact that it was about to turn into some “car crash” television.

After a sweet message reel from each woman, the presenter approached one of the people proposing in the studio audience and asked them if there was “something else” they had to say.

However, the woman was slightly underprepared as she scoured through her bag to find the piece of jewellery she was set to pop the question with.

To make matters worse, the host couldn’t tell if the man had accepted or not and she had to double check – er, awkward.

It didn’t end there though, as Christine moved on to two other couples attempting to propose, but it seems the cameraman couldn’t make up their mind on which one to film first.

Of course, many viewers took to social media to express their thoughts on the “car crash” proposals.

We guess it’s the thought that counts – right?
