Sharelle seemed to think Chad was kidding at first–given his usual goofball antics. But Johnson wasn’t. But to get her to the venue, he reportedly told her it was an early celebration of his 45th birthday, which he brought in today (Jan. 9). He pulled out the box with light illuminating the ring, and Sharelle let the joyful tears flow! Per PEOPLE, he slid an oval cut, 7.5-carat engagement ring on Sharelle’s left hand.
