"When Bella finally picks Jacob," one fan commented, referring to the love triangle between Bella, Edward and Jacob in the blockbuster "Twilight" books and movies.

Mayo also shared photos of his proposal on Instagram. In one snap, Robertson has a blindfold on and there are white petals on the ground, while another picture shows Mayo on bended knee while showing his now-fiancée the ring. The newly engaged couple then kiss and embrace each other in the next images.

"Engaged!" Mayo wrote in the caption. "Bella is many things to me. She is my best friend. She is the person I can lean on in any problem with no judgment. But with the honest truth when I’m acting out."

Mayo also mentioned how Robertson influenced his spiritual side.

"She loves Jesus. She holds me to a higher standard that she doesn’t let waver," he added. "She unconditionally loves me whether I’m doing what she likes or the opposite side of the spectrum. She’s the one for me forever. She’s my everything. I thank God for her. #tothemayos."

Meanwhile, Bella's older sister, Sadie Robertson, congratulated the newly engaged couple. Sadie, who is expecting her first baby with her husband Christian Huff, shared several family and group photos from the engagement celebration on social media.

"HOW IS MY LITTLE SISTER ENGAGED?!? I thought you were still 7?!?" she wrote in the caption. "But as wild as this is to me I’m thankful it’s to such a good man like Jacob. We can’t wait to welcome you into this crazy family even though I kind of already feel like you are a part of it [red heart emojoi] bella, you have always had the best heart and you’re going to be the most incredible wife."

Their mother, Korie, also showered Mayo and Bella with lots of love.

"Our fam is growing again @bellarobb got engaged last night to the sweetest man @jacobdmayo My baby girl all the emotions!!" she wrote.

She continued, "Jacob, we love you and are so excited to welcome you into the fam. It’s been so much fun to see your love story unfold. From coming around for tennis, to family trips, to us all growing to love you. Together, you two are a strong, kind, fun, generous, grace-filled, bright light in the world.
