Arsenal footballing ace Jorginho had fans rolling with laughter after hilariously turning down his girlfriend's playful proposal hint. This amusing incident happened during the filming of Amazon Prime's newest series, Married to the Game. The show offers an inside look into the off-field lives of our favourite Premier League players and their partners.
In a recent viral clip from the 2023 series, we see Jorginho and his then-girlfriend Catherine Harding getting ready for an event together. Catherine, mother of Jude Law's child, considers whether to wear a ring on her engagement finger while jokingly asking Jorginho: «You're not going to propose to me today, are you?»
Jorginho's quick-witted response of a comically dry: «No,» not only causes Catherine to burst into laughter but also sends social media into fits of giggles. She couldn't help but add: «Just in case, it's free.»
Never missing a beat, Jorginho replies deadpan: «It's going to stay free. I'll wait for you downstairs,» and shuts the door; proving once again that our beloved footballers can be just as entertaining off the pitch as they are at the Emirates Stadium.
The video of the scene went viral online, with fans making jokes about Jorginho's funny reaction. Someone said, «Why is he looking at her like he hates her.»
Another person wrote on Twitter, «I know that look. I'm familiar with his game,» and someone else said, «Evades the press on and off the field. Fairs.»
More people joined in, saying things like: «He's running out of energy,» and another person laughed, «I'm crying, bro's fed up.»
Despite the jokes, Jorginho has since proposed to Catherine, announcing their engagement this winter.
