Congratulations are in order for Duane Martin and his fiancée. The 58-year-old actor revealed that he is engaged on Saturday, February 3.
Martin took to Instagram to share a video clip with fans. Additionally, the actor shared a caption showing love to his fiancée, model Ashley Marie Jones.
“She said YES 💍 ❤️
Meet my fiancée
God don’t make people like her in 3s
She’s rare
She’s a heart opener

I’m hugging gratitude tight🙏🏽

The footage featured various clips of Jones.
Shortly after, Jones took to her Instagram account to share footage from Martin’s proposal. The actor popped the big question while the pair took a romantic helicopter ride over Los Angeles, California.
The proposal also appeared to be in celebration of Jones’ birthday.
Additionally, Jones shared a caption expressing her excitement.
“This moment is surreal… 🤍🙏🏼 Wow, 2.2.24. A birthday surprise! 😍 Y’all, I’m a fiancée!!!… To such an amazing man. I value our love; it’s at high altitude, high frequency, and filled with lots of laughter ✨ @duane_martin
Check out the moment below.
Social media users entered The Shade Room’s comment section to react to Martin and Jones’ engagement. Many referred to Martin’s ex-wife and fellow actor Tisha Campbell. As The Shade Room previously reported, the pair finalized their divorce after over 20 years of marriage in 2020. During the proceedings, Campbell reportedly accused Martin of hiding money during their marriage and even received a restraining order against him.
“She must not have read the Yelp reviews on this man…”
“Took all tisha money and bought somebody else a ring with it…tuh”
“No matter what a man does he will always find another woman, that’s so frustrating 😒”
“Men are able to move on so much quicker then woman after divorce. This needs to be studied”
“Wonder if he got the ring with our auntie Gina money”
“Dear Single ladies, stay prayed up and always ask God for discernment🙏🏼… that’s it and that’s all!”
As The Shade Room previously reported, Duane Martin made headlines last November. At the time, a former business partner of Will Smith alleged the actor and Martin had once been caught in a sexual act.
The allegations prompted immediate responses from social media users and a representative of Smith’s.
“This story is completely fabricated, and the claim is unequivocally false,” the rep reportedly told TMZ.
Furthermore, the allegations even prompted a response from Smith’s wife, Jada.
