Victoria’s Secret Angel Lais Ribeiro and her partner, NBA player Joakim Noah are finally engaged! The pair got engaged while at Burning Man — her “favorite place in the world” — the model, 28, posted on Instagram this Saturday.
“I’m a bit late for Burning Man pics and of course I didn’t use my phone for 5 days and I don’t have any pic but thanks to my Bff @jeromeduran he shot one of the best moments in my life!” shared Ribeiro, who is a mom to eleven-year-old son Alexandre.
In the photo, she and Noah, 34, lock in an embrace under a tent — apparently, after Ribeiro said “yes.” The model was ready for Burning Man in a mesh neon-green skirt and pasties to match.
Noah commented on Ribeiro’s post to tell her he loves her back to the moon:
“Seeing you smiling on the playa like that…. I will never forget,” he wrote. “I got your back always picanha. C toi ma femme [You are my wife] and I knew that from the minute we started dating. Jtaime tellement [I love you so much]❤️❤️❤️❤️.”
The former Memphis Grizzlies player also shared a sweet note about the proposal on Instagram Saturday, along with a couple of photos of the two.
“Asking you out was the easiest decision I have made in my life,” he wrote. “Watching that smile riding the playa at the burn… I will never forget that.”
In the first picture, he and Ribeiro are seen kissing while he sits atop a car, while the second was a cute selfie of the two.
“I got your back picanha!!! I know you know because I will tell you so every day,” Noah added. “I really love u.”
And it seems he’s already super pumped about the wedding, telling his followers it’ll be quite the event.
“On a side note, this wedding is about to be lit. 🔥🔥❤️❤️,” he added.
