"To My Ace, I didn't know things were going to go this way. Even from the jump I didn't know I was texting Big Jay. I didn't know how you were going to perceive me. But this entire time I was hoping that you would believe me. Believe the words that I will have your back and love u forever. When I FIRST saw you I told Ryan that we were gon be together."

The former NBA MVP continued, "It took both of us a while to let down our guards. That's only becuz both of our hearts were scarred. We are two peas in a pod becuz we are truly MISUNDERSTOOD. We got our heart and swag from this place called ENGLEWOOD. I will always love you becuz you go above and beyond. We built a beautiful family and a unbreakable bond. Thank you Queen."
According to TMZ, Rose and Anderson had been together for nearly five years and also parent two children, a daughter Layla and a son, London. Anderson posted photos from the exciting event also, highlighting pictures of Rose mid-proposal as well as close-up shots of the gorgeous ring.
