Trista Sutter Shares Never-Before-Seen Photos from Her and Ryan’s Proposal: ‘LOVE These Memories!’
Blast from the past!
Trista and Ryan Sutter found love and got engaged on the very first season of “The Bachelorette.”
Trista gave Ryan her final rose back in 2003 and the two have been together ever since.
Since then, the Bachelor Nation couple has gotten married and had two children: Max and Blakesley.
Trista loves keeping fans updated with her life on social media, and just took to Instagram this week to share never-before-seen photos from the day she and Ryan got engaged on “The Bachelorette.”
In a new video post with film photos from that special day, Trista wrote, “Today, I got the best kind of text…a text from a long time friend who sent pics, with some I had never seen before from the day Ryan asked me to marry him!”
The photos reveal behind-the-scenes moments from the proposal, including Trista getting ready, her and Ryan posing with her ring, and a producer fake proposing to her.
Trista revealed that the person who texted her was a producer from the show who turned into a close friend.
She expressed her gratitude for her friend, saying that he was “there from beginning to end with me…guiding me and listening to me and helping me stay healthy and cheering me on.”
Trista ended her post with thanks for the photos and shared what it meant to receive them.
She wrote, “Thanks J for being there to help me through one of the best and craziest times in my life, and for your texts today. LOVE these memories!!!! 🌹💍 ❤️”
Fellow Bachelor Nation stars filled the comments with their love for the throwback photos, with Bob Guiney writing, “This is awesome!!! 🙌🙌🙌,” and DeAnna Pappas adding, “Love it!!”
