Ricky Martin Botched Proposal

The singer Enrique “Ricky” Martin has fessed up to botching his proposal to his boyfriend Jwan Yosef. He was so nervous that he messed up the proposal and instead of saying “Will you marry me?” he told Yosef that “I got you something!” Eventually, Martin asked Yosef to spend their lives together and asked him to marry him. After a while, Martin had to double check with Yosef to make sure he said yes.

When Martin appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show, she asked him for all the engagement details and how they met each other. Martin revealed that he was first attracted to the art made by Yosef and started to collect his artwork. He reached out to the artist eventually.

Besides the fantastic personal news, Martin is doing well professionally with a new concert happening in Las Vegas. Then Ellen revealed that the audience was going to Las Vegas to see the show and stay at the Monte Carlo.

Enrique “Ricky” Martin Morales was named after his dad Enrique Martin Negroni, who was a psychologist. The masculine name Enrique is the Spanish version of Henry, which is taken from the Germanic name Heimirich that means “home ruler”. The name is composed of two elements: heim that means “home” and ric that means “ruler or power”.

There are many people with the given name, from Enrique Alvarez Felix a Mexican actor to Enrique Escalante the Puerto Rican volleyball player, even Enrique Bolanos Geyer the former President of Nicaragua.
