And she of course said yes!
Brad Womack first appeared on The Bachelor in 2007 and famously rejected the two final contestants.
But on tonight's season finale, the 38-year-old heartbreaker presented his final rose - and Neil Lane diamond engagement ring - to 24-year-old Emily Maynard. Runner up Chantal O'Brien left in tears.
Womack said the following to single mom Maynard in Cape Town, South Africa:
"You're the one, Em. You're my once in a lifetime. Please let me be your once in a lifetime. Please let me be your best friend. Please let me protect you and your beautiful daughter, and please let me love you for the rest of your life. I love you, Emily. I am truly in love with you. Emily, please make me happier than I've ever been in my life and marry me."
Maynard replied with, "I would love to. You just made me the happiest girl in the world."

Work it, girl! The former Playboy house bunny turned reality TV starlet is looking super-sexy after dance practice in Hollywood on Sunday - Kendra Wilkinson is partnered with Louis Van Amstel on Dancing With the Stars, which premieres on Monday, March 21st.
Wilkinson claims she doesn't like being the favorite to win this season, telling TV Guide: "I've always been the underdog and I love that feeling. I've never won anything except for my husband and my son... It's flattering, I guess, but I wish people wouldn't do that. It puts extra pressure on me. I don't know why people are picking me. I do not have one minute of choreographed dance experience in my life... I need a lot of practice. I'm going to make a lot of mistakes."
We're rooting for you - just as long as you beat Kirstie Alley!
Sienna Miller was positively glowing as she launched her new collection for Twenty8Twelve, her clothing line with sister Savannah, at Selfridges department store in London Monday.
And even though Sienna is celebrating something new, she's also getting over her old boyfriend. Miller split (for the second time) with Jude Law earlier this year, but the playboy actor may have already moved on with another woman!
Law reportedly reunited with model Lily Cole at a London nightclub last week, after the pair dated briefly in 2008 (before he hooked up with Sienna again.)
"Jude and Lily were at a table kissing and being very flirtatious," a witness tells the Daily Mail. "It was clear they were comfortable with each other."
