Talk about a pandemic love story! While Eric Vanderlee, a registered nurse, prepared to administer the COVID-19 vaccine to his boyfriend, Robbie Vargas-Cortes, he was astounded with a surprise proposal.
In the now-viral video, Vargas-Cortes rolled up his sleeve to expose his arm for the show. At first, Vanderlee believed that to be the spot where he was to inject the vaccine.
He was shocked to find an engagement ring taped beneath the sleeve. "It’s been kind of a crazy year, and you know it’s been a fun ride to have you in my life," Vargas-Cortes, a 31-year-old emergency medical service supervisor smiled to his beau before popping the question.
