She said yes! … then she said oops!

Katie Nicholson‘s romantic beachside proposal almost became a washout.

Minutes after the 24-year-old’s fiancé slipped the ring on her finger, the sea snatched it away when the couple decided to go for a celebratory dip.

She captured the mishap in a TikTok slideshow that’s gotten over 500,000 views so far.

They frantically searched for the ring, soon joined by a group of passersby, while facing the reality that it had been swept away and lost forever.

As luck would have it, though, a “miracle guy” found the ring, providing a happy ending to the fairytale proposal.
