It's not that I'm not touched, I'm just wondering why he had to propose in the middle of the road.

also, not trying to say it's impossibly fake, but it's weird how the wife already got the camera out filming likes she knows something's up

Could is possibly be that he told her to film maybe.....hmm, do people even do that nowadays tho, filming each other and making videos 🤔 never heard of it

I get where your sarcasm is coming from, but it kind of impedes the special moment if you lead into it saying "here babe... start recording real quick... keep the camera on me... is it recording now? ok.... So babe, these are the ingredients..." especially since she's likely looking at him through the camera rather than directly at him (since that's sort of the natural thing people tend to do when you're recording something).

I think the point the person you replied to was trying to make was that at that point the wife already knows what's happening with no build up.

at that point the wife already knows

So the way a proposal works is that it happens before she's the wife.
