Jacqui Heinrich's husband's proposal
Jacqui Heinrich’s husband, Brian Fitzpatrick, proposed to the Fox News journalist on June 29 at Lavender Field in Valensole in Nice, France. The American congressman organised the trip as a birthday gift for Heinrich, who turns 37 in November. He drew inspiration from her comments to the Boston Globe, in which she said she had always wanted to visit the lavender field.
I have always dreamed of eating my way through the French Riviera and Provence, with sun-drenched days at the lavender fields punctuated by crisp wines and salty butter.
Despite his busy schedule, which the journalist feared would interrupt their trip, Fitzpatrick insisted on the holiday, giving her a clue that a proposal was coming.
We are going to the Lavender Fields. All I want is to see the lavender fields at sunrise. All the time I have known this man, he has never been desperate to see a field of flowers at dawn. So I had a feeling that [a proposal] was the goal.
During their time there, the couple drove to Valensole, known for its lavender and truffles. He stopped at one of the fields, asked Heinrich to take a walk as he photographed her, and then a drone and a photographer appeared. Fitzpatrick went down on one knee with an engagement ring bought from Heinrich’s family jewellery shop in Portland.
Heinrich revealed that he planned everything himself.
He did not ask for any help from me or anyone I know. So I was surprised he got it spot-on.What I could have asked for, dreamed up myself, he did without even asking.
However, the 10-day trip was cut short because Brian had to travel back to the United States to vote against Trump’s bill, which eventually became law.
