There wasn’t a dry eye in the studio when an Aussie man proposed to his girlfriend who is battling breast cancer on live TV.
Jarrod got down on one knee and popped the question to Tara during last night’s episode of The Project.
‘Just before we go to the break, we just want to give a shout out to one of our audience members tonight who is here with us,’ the host said.
‘She’s had a huge year, she’s been battling breast cancer, almost finished chemo, we just want to say good luck. Jarrod, she seems like an absolutely incredible woman.’
Jarrod described Tara to the audience as the ‘strongest’ person he has ever met.
‘Tara is probably the strongest, most tough person I’ve ever met, she is the best mum, the best partner, she is my best friend, we make the best team,’ he said.
‘I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Tara. Will you marry me?’ he asked.
Of course she said yes.
‘Oh my god! Yes,’ she said before kissing Jarrod.
Twitter users were quick to admit the moment brought a tear to their eye.
‘Sobbing through my dinner thanks to @theprojecttv What a beautiful moment, congratulations lovebirds!’ wrote one fan.
Another said: ‘Geez guys really pulling on the heart strings there!’
