Manny Jacinto Engaged to Dianne Doan: How 'The Good Place' Inspired His Proposal
Congrats are in order for Manny Jacinto and Dianne Doan!
The couple are engaged, Jacinto revealed during a panel alongside his Good Place co-stars D'Arcy Carden and Marc Evan Jackson at Vulture Festival 2019 on Saturday. A rep for Jacinto confirmed the couple's engagement to ET.
"I was toying when to pop the question for a long time," Jacinto explained, per Vulture. "I looked at the Janet/Jason relationship, and there's a sentence that Jason says to Chidi about relationships and it hit me pretty hard. I thought it was a sign that I needed to do it, and a week later I popped the question."
Wishing this sweet man a very Happy Birthday❤️

Jacinto, 32, said he ended up taking the Warrior actress, 29, to several locations that were special to their relationship. "I took her to places that really meant a lot to us," he shared. "Where I first met her, where I first saw her, where we had our first date, and where we had our first dance class."
"I had these canvas things written down with a message saying why the places were important to us. At every location I had her close her eyes, I’d hold up the canvas, and she would open her eyes. I took her through five different places, and at the last place I had our families waiting and I proposed," Jacinto said.
