The volleyball player, meanwhile, also posted some moments of Rocco’s proposal to her, including a photo of them seemingly wiping their tears.
“The easiest ‘Yes’ I’ve ever said in my life!” she said. Melissa shared that it was her mom who taught her that “love is a choice” and that the other half she will be choosing should be someone who “I can get through the highest of highs and lowest of lows.”
“To my future husband, I will still choose you over and over again even in the darkest of times because you showed me the stars. I love you Enrico Raphael Quiogue Nacino forever,” Melissa said.
“It still feels surreal when I woke up. It was a dream come true!” she continued.
