In addition to the Instagram reel, Brian and Sharna also talked about the moment Brian popped the big question during their new podcast episode with co-host Randy Spelling.
The lovebirds explained that the engagement took place earlier this year in July during a surprise birthday party for the actor.
“We’ve been engaged for two months,” Burges announced excitedly, adding, “Brian asked me to marry him.”
In regards to asking Sharna to marry him during his 50th birthday, the actor said, “I thought, ‘That’s the perfect place to do it. She would never see it coming.”
Burgess then recalled, “We go into our bedroom and I start to get feelings of, ‘Oh my God.’ He says, “Hey, kids come here.” And the kids come in with him and Noah is holding Zane and Journey is holding this little red Cartier box.”
With their children also in the room, Green sweetly asked Sharna, “Would you like to spend the rest of your life with us?”
The dancer said, “Of course I said yes and put that ring on my finger. I hugged them all and it was the most perfect, beautiful moment because it was us. It was our unit, our tribe, and I love that he wanted to do it that way.”

‘Perfect place’: In regards to asking Sharna to marry him on his 50th birthday, the actor said, “I thought, ‘That’s the perfect place to do it.’ She would never see it coming.
Brian explained that it was important to him that the children were part of the proposal. “I had this idea in my head that I wanted the kids to be a part of it, because they are a part of everything.”
The lovebirds then discussed the reason behind the two-month wait to officially announce their engagement news.
Sharna stated that Brian was “completely open to making an announcement,” but they were having a hard time figuring out the best way to do it.
“One day I said to him, ‘I just don’t like that this is what we’re talking about.’ I would rather live in our engagement and enjoy it, instead of obsessing over what is the right way to do it. The right path will present itself when it is meant to.”
Brian and Sharna first crossed paths in 2020 at a cafe after a mutual acquaintance connected them.
The actor said People at the time, even though he wasn’t looking for a relationship after his divorce from Megan, sparks flew right away.
‘On our first date we completely lost track of time and the next time the same thing happened. It became something noticeably different from anything I had ever experienced before.”
The two became a couple shortly afterwards and a year later they took part in Dancing With The Stars together.
