This proposal took a turd in the wrong direction.
Lewis Paterson, 30, had planned to give his “princess” the perfect fairy tale engagement, dropping down to one knee in the Château de Castelnaud, which overlooks the river Dordogne in the south of France.
The picturesque location inspired the setting for “Beauty and the Beast,” which Paterson noted is partner Nicola Bolton’s favorite Disney classic.
However, the proposal was off to a crappy start.
When Paterson opened the ring box to pop the question, the beautiful engagement ring went flying and landed in a pile of horse manure and hay at the side of the road.
Rather than soak up the moment, the couple immediately began searching for the diamond in the dung.
