USW Student Pops The Question As He Gets His Degree
HERE’s the couple who have become an internet sensation after a graduation ceremony proposal at the University of South Wales (USW).
Redmond Jenkins, 29, stopped on stage as he received his degree in civil engineering earlier this week, and asked long-term girlfriend Kelly Jones, 25, to marry him.
To his relief, and the hundreds also attending the ceremony at USW’s Treforest campus, Kelly said ‘yes’.
“I was expecting it, but not at that point,” said the delighted bride-to-be.
“I was speechless, totally taken aback and I couldn’t believe it. I love him to pieces.”
And Kelly said the couple, from Tonyrefail who have two sons, Macsen Rees, four, and Dylan Rees, two, are already planning their wedding.
The admin assistant at Redmond’s dad’s ice cream company, Sub Zero, added: “We’re going to go abroad in two years and get married then.”
