AceShowbiz - Jon Francetic joined Lifetime's "Married at First Sight" during its season six, hoping to find the love of his life. Although his marriage to Molly Duff didn't last, he did end up finding love through the show. He has just announced his engagement to the show's expert psychologist and marriage counselor, Dr. Jessica Griffin.
The 30-year-old financial associate took to his Instagram account to share the big news on Sunday, April 14. Jon popped the question to the therapist during their trip to the Grand Canyon on Saturday, April 13. "I just love how happy she looks. Oh, and we got engaged at the Grand Canyon yesterday! And now @dr.jessicagriffin is mine foreverrrr #shesmine #nervouswreck @grandcanyonadventures @mpopefinejewelers," he captioned a picture of them flashing smiles at the landmark. Meanwhile, Jessica was seen rocking her massive diamond engagement ring.
Jessica also shared a slew of other pictures on her own account. One photo showed them embracing each other with the beautiful view behind them. Another snap saw them posing with their bikes, while the last photo featured the newly-engaged couple sharing a kiss.
"I have always said, you can find love in extraordinary ways - you just have to follow your heart and be you, nobody other than you, and the right person will find you (if he’s persistent enough and eventually hunts you down and won't take no for an answer.)," she wrote in the caption. "For the first time in my history of knowing him, Jon was at a loss for words and a total adorable mess on his knee. So, of course, I said yes - just helping a guy out."
"Today, we celebrated yesterday's Grand Canyon engagement by a sick mountain bike trail ride in Sedona where I decided to faceplant via an endo (where you flip head over feet over your handle bars) and landed on face likely breaking nose, bike landing on top of me and jacked up both legs. Zoom in for the proof. Hey, in my defense, I was a little distracted by this incredible guy," she added "I love you with everything I have. @jon_francetic #lovewins #engaged #shesaidyes."
"They are both beyond thrilled," a rep for the couple told E! News. "They knew this would be the end result all along."
The pair met during season 6 of "Married at First Sight", in which Jessica counseled him and his then-wife and co-star Molly Duff. Jon and Molly later got divorced before Jon confirmed that he was dating Jessica back in August 2018.
This arrives after it was reported that Jessica would exit "Married at First Sight". "Jessica and Jon are very happy together. She wants to focus on her family and their relationship," a friend of the couple said to PEOPLE. Lifetime, however, declined to comment on the matter.
