The 22-year-old supermodel posted a photo of a dinner plate with the words “Marry Me?” written in ketchup. The three answer options were yes, duh and of course, which seemed to be part of the joke.
When word got to Kate that she has created not just a stir but a frenzy in the social media, she eventually deleted the picture.
She then tweeted: “Everyone ruined my joke. That’s what #justkidding means. That’s it’s a joke. Get it?
Observers believe that the Instagram post may have just been a joke from Kate Upton but it is likely that she is preparing everyone for a future announcement.
Kate and Justin began dating in 2012. They broke up a year later and got back together shortly. They also had to endure a nude photo scandal in August 2014 so their relationship has been through a lot already that makes them just about right for marriage.
