Sara Gilbert, The Talk co-host, and singer-songwriter Linda Perry are engaged. Gilbert announced the big news on The Talk on Monday, revealing that her girlfriend proposed via a musical picnic at a park in Los Angeles about a week ago.

While they were enjoying their romantic picnic, a street guitarist began playing one of the couple’s favorite songs. Gilbert had originally thought it was just a coincidence, telling her The Talk co-hosts, “I’m like, ‘Oh that’s so weird, this is so magical and amazing.’” While the picnickers around them joined the guitarist on string instruments for “Love Song” by The Cure, Perry used a series of T-shirts, each with the words “Will” “You” “Marry” “Me” and then a question mark to propose.

Perry’s romantic proposal wasn’t done yet though. She had then arranged for John Waite to play another of their favorite songs, “Missing You.” “We had our proposal with our breakup song, which is great,” Gilbert joked.

Gilbert was previously in a 10-year relationship with TV producer Alison Adler. The former couple shares custody of their son Levi, 8, and their daughter Sawyer, 5. The longtime Roseanne star has been with Perry for over a year.
