Tim Tebow Gets Engaged to Girlfriend, Miss Universe 2017 Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters
Christian Headlines ^ | 01/10/2019 | Kayla Koslosky

Christian athlete, author, sports broadcaster and movie producer Tim Tebow is now officially an engaged man.

According to PEOPLE Magazine, the Heisman Trophy winner proposed to his girlfriend and 2017 Miss Universe Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters on Wednesday.

The pair were visiting the Minor League baseball player’s family farm in Jacksonville, Florida when he decided to pop the question.

PEOPLE reports that the couple went for a walk by a small lake on his family’s property where Tebow had an arbor and bench – engraved with the day of the couple’s first date – installed.

The magazine reports that Tebow also had South African singer Matthew Mole hidden behind a hay bale and ready to serenade the newly engaged couple. After Nel-Peters said yes to marrying the former NFL Quarter Back, Mole emerged from behind the hay bale and sang “The Wedding Song” for the couple.

The pair was then joined by their family members. Tebow had flown Nel-Peters' family and friends in from South Africa as a surprise for his soon to be wife.

Thursday afternoon Nel-Peters posted a series of photos capturing the moment on Instagram. In the caption, she wrote, “Any dreams I’ve ever had, you’ve exceeded them all! I love you and I can’t wait to spend forever with you!”

If he was a black NFL player he would certainly have III after his name.

I checked more of her photos online and don't think she'd do any better on a DNA test than Senator Pocahontas.

Father & daughter:

Many (maybe even most) Mediterranean whites are much darker than him.

Sure she’s a fine person, but this everything has to be on film nonsense... Sorry... not a fan of it.

No doubt... I agree on that. But I do think the left is not going to accept that she is a non-white South African.

You got that photo off internet where it is mislabeled. That is her stepdad and mother. There is another photo of all 5 of them. The man on the end is holding her mom. That would not happen when the parents are divorced. Her dad whom she looks just like including chin is posted above.

The reason for the difference:


"Miss South Africa 2017, Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters, celebrates with her mother, Anne-
Mari Steenkamp, stepfather Johan Steenkamp, father Bennie Peters and ..."

She has her mom’s eyes.

I read they are talking about a destination wedding. Maybe the Carribean. I wonder when. You dont go to the Caribbean during the summer or hurricane season.

Yes, that is her birth mother. Looks like both bio dad and bio mom might be part Filipino or such. That would be ‘coloured’ under Apartheid.

Did I Pose for pictures flaunting the ring afterward?

I actually took a photo and put it in the local newspaper! That was 42 years ago!

Don't be silly about this. People having been doing things like this for a long time.

So what! Here's the point:

While Pocahontas Warren was born in and her family has long roots in Oklahoma - where there are many full and mixed blood Indians - that did not make her an Indian as she falsely claimed.
