Al Rokerโs daughter Leila is engaged!
Leila Roker announced her engagement to Sylvain Gricourt on her Instagram Sunday, March 2.
She shared a series of photos from the special day as she posed alongside Gricourt in Italy, including a snap at the end of her stunning engagement ring.
In the caption, she penned a sentimental note looking back at their relationship, writing, โ8 years ago, I moved to Paris, 7 years ago I met my person and best friend, and 2 days ago, that person took me on the most amazing surprise trip to Venice to ask me to spend the rest of our lives together.โ
Leila’s mom, Deborah Roberts, commented on her post, writing, โWe could not be happier and more joyful!!!!โ
โWelcome to the family Sylvain!โ she added. โNow letโs plan a wedding!โ
Her older sister, Courtney Roker Laga, also left a sweet note, commenting, โSo exciting!!! Welcome to the family @gricourt.thegreat.โ
Gricourt shared a post of his own on Instagram that featured several new photos from their elegant engagement, including a photo of him placing the ring on Leilaโs finger.
โJust two days ago I put a ring on her finger, and thatโs the best thing I did in the last 33 years,โ he wrote in the caption, before adding a line in French that proposed the two spend the next 33 years together.
Just two months before the engagement, Al spent Christmas in France with Roberts and his son, Nick, to visit Leila and her then-boyfriend for the holidays.
Leila captured some sweet family moments on her Instagram from their trip, including a selfie with her parents, brother, and Gricourt enjoying some โseasonal activitiesโ in Paris.
In another snap posted on Instagram, the group were dressed to the nines, with Leila writing in the caption that it marked her first family Christmas spent in Paris.
