In an interview with Elle, the Top Gun: Maverick actor detailed his journey from how he took the help of an African guide. Stating how Keleigh Sperry thought that someone died before Miles Teller pulled out the ring, the actor narrated the hilarious tale.
“I had our guide, early in the morning, tie a rose to a tree… [We] walked up to this nice scenic vista having coffee. She looked over and saw a rose and thought somebody had died. Which, whatever.”
He further continued,
“I said, ‘This is the day you became my girlfriend, and today was the last day you woke up as my girlfriend.’”
After the proposal in 2017, the couple married in a private ceremony in Maui, Hawaii back in 2019, and have been happily married ever since.
