PHOTO: YAHOO!While answering the audience’s questions at the book festival, the Bridge of Spies actor said that he had a question of his own. He then went on to say that Ryan McFarling had a question for Nikki Young and the question was, “Nikki, will you marry me?” The groom-to-be, McFarling then got down on one knee and Young accepted the proposal.
And a surprise wedding proposal with the help of @tomhanks during his Q&A! Congratulations to the happy couple! ❤️ #txbookfest pic.twitter.com/GceDZsAN30
