Max Verstappen,four -time world championIn Formula 1, it once again caused a stir in the world – this time not because of his performance on the circuit, but because of an overwhelming romantic gesture towards his girlfriendKelly Piquet. During an intimate moment on the beautiful Como in Italy, the Dutch driver asked her to marry her, and did it in his own spectacular way: with aBugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+no less than3 million dollars.
The hyperexclusive car was completely personalized in colors that symbolize their relationship. The dashboard was engraved:“Forever together – do you want to marry me? – Max.”Surrounded by candlelight, flowers and a breathtaking view, it seemed like a fairytale -like proposal that could not follow “no”.
But Kelly’s reaction came like a smoke. She remained stiff, hit her hand in front of her mouth and visibly answered overwhelmed:“Max … do you really mean this? We never talked about this …”Instead of giving him a clear “yes”, she took him aside for a long and serious conversation of almost an hour – far away from family and guests present.
When the couple returned, there was no ring, no kiss and no confirmation. Only silence and tension. The internet exploded. A storm of reactions immediately arose on social media. Some fans understood her restraint – “She wants to think about it, that deserves respect.” Others reacted stunned: “Who doubts a Bugatti and a marriage proposal from a four -time world champion?”
De hashtag#SayyeskellyImmediately started to trend on X (formerly Twitter), and thousands of fans expressed their hope, frustration or compassion. International media also featured en masse on the story.
To date, both Max and Kelly have not given an official response. According to sources close to the couple, Max would have remained disappointed, but remained calm and respectful. Kelly would need time to organize her feelings and make a well -considered decision.
What was meant like a fairy -tale moment of love ended in uncertainty and bewilderment. The Formula 1 world, used to plots of turns on the track, now sees how life next to the circuit can be at least as unpredictable.
Fans worldwide hope for a happy follow -up – and await in excitement whether Kelly’s answer will still be “yes”.
