Young Thug Gets Engaged to Mariah the Scientist With an Onstage Proposal: See Her Ring

Young Thug put on a ring on it. Thugger and his longtime girlfriend, Mariah the Scientist, got engaged on Tuesday night (Dec. 16) after the Atlanta rapper proposed to the singer while on stage.

Thugger got down on a knee while performing at his Hometown Hero concert in Atlanta, which had Mariah in shock. A “Will You Marry Me” graphic was blasted across the jumbotron screen as the crowd erupted into a frenzy.

The couple shared a warm embrace with Thug still holding the ring out while on a knee. “What you say?” he asked. “Put it on,” she exclaimed back to her man, giving her approval. Mariah later added, “I guess I’m getting married” before kissing Thugger.

Atlanta-based photographer Prince Williams captured a better look at the double-barreled diamond-encrusted ring backstage at the concert. The photos feature Thug caressing Mariah, who’s showing off her new bling, with the rapper even cracking a rare smile.

Thug and Mariah the Scientist began dating in 2021, and she held him down throughout his two-plus years behind bars, fighting the YSL RICO case.

However, back in October, Thug confirmed in a livestream with Adin Ross that he “got broken up with,” which hinted at a split with Mariah. The couple ended up reconciling days later for the singer’s birthday.

In a way, Mariah manifested getting engaged when she dropped some major hints for Thug during an interview with Angie Martinez over the weekend.

“I want to settle down, I wanna be married,” she said. “That’s my plan. I want a baby. I just want at least one. I’ll start with that and see how I can manage.”

Thug and Mariah have joined forces on the music side as well, teaming up for collabs such as “Ride,” “Walked In,” “Dreams Rarely Do Come True” and “Invest Into You.”
