Evan was included in the rapper’s proposition. McCarthy stated that she and her husband were sitting together, appreciating how happy they were, when Evan approached her.
Then Evan handed her a piece of paper with the words “Will,” walked away, then returned with another with the words “You,” and McCarthy realized what was going on.
Evan entered the room with the last sheet of paper on which he had written: “marry.” His mother admitted that he had misspelled it, but she still thought it was cute.
Then Wahlberg walked in wearing a shirt that said “Me?” and proposed with a large yellow sapphire diamond ring. McCarthy was already in tears at this point, but what made her cry was when her child exclaimed, “I’m going to have a new daddy!” after she said yes.
That was one of the couple’s most memorable and significant moments as a blended family, followed by the wedding, in which Evan also played an important role.
On the big day, Wahlberg assisted Evan in getting ready, and the little boy was honored to lead his mother down the aisle. Evan was so pleased with his performance that he informed his mother, “I have the most important duty during the wedding.”
McCarthy and Evan have become closer since Wahlberg entered their lives. The rapper has taught his stepson many things that the actress was unable to teach.
Evan is now a mature 20-year-old, and while he has his stepfather’s love and support, his father, Asher, has also become more involved in his life. Asher stated that he was not proud of how he handled his son’s illness and that he has vowed to be a better father since then.
Meanwhile, McCarthy highlighted one of the finest Christmas presents she received from her spouse, which was related to her child.
The actress, who admitted to feeling burdened by the obligations of raising a special-needs child, stated that Wahlberg’s gesture relieved her of one of many burdens: he shocked her by offering to pay for Evan’s college tuition.
McCarthy thanked her husband for being so caring and helpful and for understanding how hard it is to be a single mother. “Thank you so much, Donnie. It was quite lovely,” the actress admitted.
