News of the couple’s engagement was celebrated by their friends and fans alike. Taking to the comments section of the rapper’s post, singer Ella Eyre wrote, “the very best two people, congratulations,” going on to joke, “don’t ask me to sing at the wedding tho okkk xxxxxxx.” Justine Jenkins commented, “Awwww guys!!!! This makes me soooo happy!!!” Somebody else added that they are “so happy for you guys.”
The couple’s engagement comes just months after they welcomed their first child together, with McAdams having given birth to their son in March 2021. Sharing the news at the time, Manderson wrote in a message, “I didn’t wake up Monday morning expecting to meet you. In my mind we still had a couple of weeks to get everything ready, but you had other ideas. I’ve always said “the only way to be on time is to be early”; it’s nice to see you taking after me already, though you seem to have inherited your Mum’s looks.”
Pro Green and McAdams, an actress best known for starring in the spy series Deep State, were first romantically linked in July 2019 following the rapper’s split from Milly Gattegno, according to the Daily Mail. The couple reportedly met through mutual friends and made their public debut at Glastonbury Festival in late June 2019. The rapper was previously married to reality star Millie Mackintosh.
