MAN PROPOSES TO GIRLFRIEND AFTER FACEBOOK LIKES CHALLENGE
A couple have got engaged after the bride-to-be’s boyfriend set her a Facebook ‘likes’ challenge. Rhys Green, 23, told his girlfriend of seven months, Hannah Tolley, 25, that if 489 people ‘liked’ her Facebook post, he would propose. Further terms included Hannah amassing 499 comments and 500 shares. With the help of Facebook users from around the world, full-time mum-of-one Hannah smashed her target and Rhys – who says he felt a ‘moral obligation’ to honour the challenge – promptly proposed. Now the Kidderminster couple are busy planning their wedding, which they plan to livestream on Facebook as a way to thank everyone who ‘liked’ their post.
