Congrats are in order for NFL star Victor Cruz who popped the question recently to his longtime girlfriend, and baby mama, Elaina Watley.

The New York Giants, wide receiver and his new fiancee have one daughter together named, Kennedy that helped make their special day come true.

According to Page Six, Cruz proposed on Sunday, July 13 in front of family and friends, after little Kennedy's "baby dedication" ceremony at the Love of Jesus Family Church in Paterson, NJ.

The couple's daughter was born in 2012, following a long time love affair between Cruz and Watley, who met back in 2003, when Cruz was still a student at Paterson Catholic High School.

"The ring is beautiful - it's a round stone with a pink diamond band," newly engaged Watley revealed to the site.

Although no wedding plans have been established just yet, Watley shares that the happy couple are considering either a destination wedding or "an iconic" New York wedding celebration.

A destination wedding sounds great, after-all we do know that the future Mrs. Cruz looks amazing in a bikini.

At least we do know one thing that will be probably added to the wedding reception, salsa dancing, which is Cruz’s signature touchdown celebration, as little Kennedy does in the Instagram video below.

Watley helps manage Cruz’s career through her firm Brand Infinite, that has not only reflected the family man that Cruz is, but sharing his success in powerful, positive moves. According to the site, Victor has said noted Watley to be “the backbone of my life.”

Kennedy was born before the Giants won the Super Bowl in 2012, but her football star father notes ther to be his “lucky charm,” and Watley revealed that she attended “every game while I was pregnant.”

Cruz scored a five-year, $46 million contract with the Giants.
