The moment that had hearts melting around the world. Immediately after Cassie announced that her and Alex were expecting a bundle of joy, the father-to-be professed his love and penned the sweetest letters to both his pregnant girlfriend and baby girl.
"I never thought my heart could grow bigger after meeting your mother... then I found out we were having you and I instantly felt a love that is so indescribable," he wrote. "I promise to be a man that you and your mother look up to and love. I will always listen and put the both of you first."
'Sound Of Love'
While they're probably excited and can't wait to become parents, Cassie and Alex took a moment to cherish the time they have together as just the two of them. Making the most of the summer, the two went on a safari adventure in July where they soaked up the sun and the fun with exotic animals.

Two months later, the singer-model and celebrity fitness trainer revealed that they were engaged. Alex proposed to Cassie in an elaborate cowboy-themed proposal at the Compton Cowboys ranch.

Mrs Fine❤️ 8.24 – forever,” Alex captioned his video. “This moment will always be so special to me,” he wrote alongside a photo of himself on one knee as Cassie looked down at him. “I get to marry my best friend in the whole world. How am I so lucky!”
