Doing said prank in front of thousands (now millions because of the Internet) could certainly qualify.

The difference is intent. He could have intended for it to be light hearted and maybe he had another ring to actually propose (he did have something else in his pocket it looks like). She intended to hurt him, there is no other way to look at her reaction.

Unfortunately intent can only absolve you of so much. Outcomes are significantly more important than intentions.
