Disney Alum Corbin Bleu Proposes to Girlfriend in Front of Cinderella’s Castle in Disney World (Where Else?)
Disney alum and High School Musical star Corbin Bleu presented his girlfriend, Sasha Clements, with a glass slipper containing a classically beautiful solitaire diamond engagement ring in the place “Where Dreams Come True” — Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
To add even more romantic symbolism to Wednesday’s momentous event, the 25-year-old actor/singer chose to propose right in front of Cinderella’s Castle (sigh).
Of course, Clements said, “Yes,” and the couple promptly turned to Instagram to report the good news. In a photo posted on Thursday to each of their accounts, Clements models her new ring with the majestic castle in the background. We've added the closeup inset in the photo, below.
His Instagram caption read: “She said yes!”
Her caption read: “I love you Corbin.”
The size of the diamond was not officially revealed, but we’re guessing that it’s 2-plus carats. The round brilliant solitaire has a four-prong setting and features pavé-set diamonds on a delicate white-metal band. The precious metal is likely 18-karat white gold or platinum.
"I'm very excited to begin this next chapter of my life with the woman who stole my heart," Bleu told People magazine.
Two days after the engagement, Clements was back on Instagram documenting her Disney adventure. Instagram followers got to see her flashing her ring at a wine tasting at the 2014 Epcot Food & Wine Festival.
Bleu, who made his mark playing Chad Danforth in High School Music and its subsequent two sequels, High School Musical 2 and High School Musical 3: Senior Year, has been dating the 24-year-old Clements since a random meeting in a Toronto grocery store in 2011. Clements is a Canadian-born actress, who now lives in Los Angeles.
The multitalented Bleu showcased his grace and agility when he made it to the finals of the 17th season of Dancing With the Stars in 2013. Clements recently appeared in the Disney Channel Original Movie, How to Build a Better Boy.
The newly engaged couple has yet to announce a wedding date.
