Halle then addressed some “confusion” around the status of their relationship, caused by a June 2025 interview that suggested Van had proposed, but she hadn’t said yes.

“No, sir, stop,” Jimmy said, covering his face as he started to laugh. He then reached over and gave Halle a comforting pat on the arm as she smiled and laughed.
She finished her story by explaining that she and Van are very much engaged. “That’s not the case. I did not say no. We just don’t have a date. But of course I said yes, I would marry him,” Halle said to raucous cheers from the audience.
