“My biggest fear in the world happened tonight,” she said in the video that has amassed more than 200K likes. “My boyfriend asked me to be his wife tonight while I didn’t have my nails done.
“He begged me because he made a reservation at the bar we met at in Japan and I was lazy and I was like, ‘Baby, let’s just order some room service, let’s stay in the room, look at this beautiful view — let’s watch the view and stay in our pajamas.”
Krause tried to compromise by offering to order some “nice steaks,” but Testa said she preferred fries and fruits instead.

“I have so much anxiety, I am so happy it happened in private where I could feel comfortable and just live in the moment with this beautiful view in my favorite city, in my favorite country,” she said.
She later gushed that Krause did “so amazing on this ring. Princess cut, that is so me. Gold, that is 100 percent me, with diamonds around the band. I can’t believe this man is so perfect.”

For Testa, her bodybuilder boyfriend is her ideal match, making her the “happiest woman alive right now.”
“We love each other so much. It just feels right,” she said. “We just love each other so unconditionally, we never fight.
“And when you know, you just know.”

Testa and Krause met online back in 2022 and continued texting throughout 2023 when they finally met in person in Japan for the now 25-year-old’s birthday in March.
Their meeting came after Testa’s public split with Atis Paul, the brother of TikTok sensation Anna Paul, who was also the first to break his silence.
Paul told his Instagram followers that the pair “love each other so much and decided to be friends now.”
He added, “Everything is perfect between us. We both agree it’s better this way.”
Testa was initially less transparent about how she was feeling, merely mentioning that her fans’ support made her “so emotional” during an Instagram Q&A.

However, she did open up in an interview with White Fox After Hours last year.
“It was seriously hell — like I had never been through something so bad ever,” she said, adding that she hadn’t spoken in-depth about the breakup.
“No one’s allowed to say anything because it will open up a wound but it’s healed.”
Many people commented on Testa's TikTok video that she was deserving of her happiness
