"She's an answer to my prayers" — Love Is Blind star Daniel asks Taylor's parents for their daughter's hand in marriage
During the meeting, the families bantered and joked about how they would wrestle for their children's time during holidays. The Love Is Blind couple was happy with how the meeting went. However, Daniel felt he needed to sit down with Taylor's parents and formally ask for their daughter's hand in marriage.
Since Taylor's mother, Connie, was unsure about the conception of their relationship and felt apprehensive about how fast things moved, Daniel wanted to have a private conversation with her husband and her to make sure they knew how serious he was about Taylor.
"It's for me to have their approval of me and the wedding and I want to ask her parents for permission to marry their daughter," Daniel told the 'Love Is Blind' cameras.
During their one-on-one conversation, Daniel told Taylor's parents it was "weird" to propose without meeting the family. He hoped they understood how serious he was, not just about Taylor, but also about marriage.
"She's an answer to my prayers. She's an answer to my parents' prayers. But I just wanted to ask your permission to get married to her," he said.
Daniel added that he wanted to start a family with Taylor and wished they would be as involved as possible. The Love Is Blind star also spoke about the importance of family, saying he knew how much they valued it. He sought permission and told them he loved Taylor, hoping they would be okay with having him as their son-in-law.
Taylor's parents approved of him, making Daniel emotional. Taylor's father, Dan, said the couple looked like they had been in a relationship for 14 years instead of three weeks. Connie stated it was "wonderful" Taylor had found someone she thought was "equally as special," and would be with her forever.
Love Is Blind season 8 is available to stream exclusively on Netflix.
