This year, love was indeed in the meadow. After a rather unsuccessful season in terms of matchmaking – alone… had ended up as a couple thanks to the dating program -, the nineteenth season is a real success. Eight out of twelve farmers found love. Among the lucky ones, Mickaël. From the speed-dating, the cow breeder in Brittany had fallen for Nadia, originally from Montpellier. And the crush was confirmed at the farm. It was therefore hand in hand that they presented themselves to Karine Le Marchand during the assessments – the first episode of which was broadcast on M6 on Monday November 25.

Living together in Morbihan since September, Mickaël and Nadia described their happiness to Karine Le Marchand, who wanted to know if they were planning to get married. The cow farmer then launched into a romantic tirade: “You are the woman I dreamed of having but never thought I would meet“, declared Mickaël, on one knee on the ground. Before asking: “Do you agree to become my wife?“Under the moved gaze of Karine Le Marchand, Nadia said”oui“. “I didn't expect that“, she slipped. However, the breeder had already gotten down on his knees a few weeks before, and she had already said “oui“.
Mickaël's unusual first marriage proposal to Nadia: “If you open the door with the credit card…“
In an interview with Télé-Loisirs, Mickaël revealed that he had already made his request before the assessments. “We have a second home and I told him: 'If you open the door with the credit card, I'll propose to you'“, he said. And she clarified the context: “We have a bay window that was blocked, so he tries, he tinkered with it, he can't do it, I say: 'Wait, I have an idea.' I watched a lot of MacGyver when I was youngerI take a credit card style card, loyalty card, and I try. He said to me: 'If you can unlock it, I'll ask you to marry me.' I fiddle with the bay window with my credit card and manage to open it! And he gets down on one knee, laughing, and he proposes, I said yes. SO he knew that eventually I would say yes if he asked me for real, so, he really did it, but a few weeks later!“

While waiting for marriage, Mickaël, who became a widower at 35, is overwhelmed by Nadia's positive response. “I couldn't imagine living together without union, for me marriage is something important“, he declared, still Tele-Leisure. So important that two requests are better than one!
