I\u2019m in the car. I don\u2019t want to snoop around because I know the ring is in here, but I don\u2019t want to spoil the surprise,\u201d she mentioned in the clip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mbatha noted that she started to feel suspicious as her partner was being unusually meticulous about what she should wear for their picnic date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe has been very, very adamant on what I should wear. He quadruple-checked my outfit for today,\u201d she shared.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pair has generally kept their romance under wraps.
