Sandor Sturbl, 28, who stars in a new musical version of the classic story about a boy who never grows up, popped the question to Lilly-Jane Young, 22, in front of a stunned audience in Glasgow.

‘Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is usually the moment when Peter Pan gives Wendy a kiss. Lilly-Jane is the love of my life,’ he explained.

'This is usually the moment when Peter Pan gives Wendy a kiss'

‘Jane, the last couple of years I’ve got to know you and you are the person I want to spend my life with. And therefore, I want to ask you, will you marry me?’

A sobbing Jane, rather hysterically nods her head in response, overcome by emotions.

She later told a local paper:

'It was a magical moment and one I’ll never forget’.

The pair have been dating for just over a year having toured the world together while starring in Peter Pan: The Never Ending Story.

Aw, young love.
