Singer Rubel Proposes to Manuella Leal During Bahia Boat Trip

Overview

• The proposal happened Saturday during a boat outing in Salvador’s Baía de Todos-os-Santos, where Rubel dove and surfaced with a ring.
• Manuella Leal at first thought the ring was a gift from Iemanjá or a joke before shouting yes as friends applauded.
• Regina Casé recorded the scene and was on board with her husband Estêvão Ciavatta, Tom Veloso, and his wife Jasmine.
• Casé said she and Jasmine were invited to be bridesmaids, and Rubel reposted the moment, writing that after his music married many couples, it was their turn.
• Brazilian outlets including O Globo and G1 reported the engagement on Sunday after the posts and videos circulated online.
