Dani Filth , lead singer of Cradle of Filth , proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Sofiya Belousova , on the afternoon of Saturday, June 14th.

The proposal happened on stage during the band's show at the Download Festival in Leicestershire, England.

Dani Filth addressed the audience [transcription via Loudwire ]: “I want to beg for a few minutes of your time. This is very important, at least to me. I’m going to embarrass my partner now. Sofiya, come here.”

Shortly after, Sofiya went up on stage. Meanwhile, a hooded figure entered from the opposite side of the stage while Filth commented: “In due time, ring bearer.” Then, Dani knelt and said:

“Sofiya, love of my life, my queen. You…”, he began as the audience applauded. The couple hugged and kissed. The vocalist then thanked the audience before starting to sing “Malignant Perfection”.
