The proposal, which took place during a serene picnic, was a huge moment for the couple who have been together since 2022.
Marta, widely considered the greatest female footballer of all time having won the FIFA Women’s player of the year – a record six times, shared the news through a series of intimate photographs on Instagram.
The images, capturing the couple’s happiness, were accompanied by a heartfelt caption from Lawrence that read, “My forever.”
The proposal was a significant personal milestone for Marta, who had previously been engaged to another Orlando Pride player, Toni Pressley.
