She went on to describe how different they are, yet how perfectly they match.

“I manifest drama. He manages it. And somehow, we just… fit. "The moment he proposed, my inner filmy heroine came alive — I raised my hands, teary-eyed, and my mind just went completely blank." Real love may not be perfect, but it is magical,” she added.
