Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith started the new year on a high note by proposing to his longtime girlfriend, Mya Danielle, in a romantic New Year’s Eve rooftop proposal. The 26-year-old NFL star popped the question in an elegant setup surrounded by flowers, candles, and the glow of city lights.
Danielle shared the exciting news with her followers on Instagram, writing, “Went on a ROCK climbing adventure with my forever tonight ????.”
A Picture-Perfect Proposal
The couple celebrated their love in a breathtaking setting atop a tall building, adorned with a vibrant flower arch of roses, sunflowers, and greenery. Despite a light drizzle, Smith and Danielle shone brightly in matching black outfits as the Eagles star got down on one knee to slip the ring onto her finger.
The romantic atmosphere was elevated by the soft glow of candles lining the floor and the soothing sounds of a violinist, serenading the couple during their special moment.
Danielle gave fans a closer look at her sparkling engagement ring in a video on her Instagram story, captioning it, “??? ending the year a fiancé,” and jokingly adding, “Y’all take a shot for me ?.”

A Growing Family
The engagement is the latest milestone for Smith and Danielle, who are already building a life together. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Kyse, in October 2023. Danielle frequently shares glimpses of their family life on social media, including a heartfelt post from Kyse’s first birthday, where the toddler wore an adorable pink dress.
“Hello Kyse turns ONE! Happy 1st birthday to my sweet baby love. Time has gone by so fast, I can’t believe she’s one already ??,” Danielle wrote in the caption, playfully adding, “By the end of the shoot, she started acting like her da and was over the pictures ?.”
The couple recently announced they are expecting their second child. In a holiday post featuring matching navy blue outfits, Danielle showed off her growing baby bump while posing with Smith and their daughter. “Happy Holidays from our growing family???,” she captioned the festive photos.
Success on and off the Field
The engagement comes just days after Smith and the Eagles closed out 2024 with a dominant 41-7 victory over NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys. Smith has been instrumental in the Eagles’ success this season, recording 68 receptions for 833 yards and eight touchdowns in 13 games.
A former Heisman Trophy winner and standout at the University of Alabama, Smith continues to prove his worth both on and off the field. Drafted by the Eagles in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, he has since become a cornerstone of the team’s offense.
Looking Ahead
As Smith and Danielle prepare for their upcoming wedding and the arrival of their second child, the couple’s future looks as bright as ever.
From their romantic rooftop engagement to their growing family, 2025 is shaping up to be a year of love, joy, and new beginnings for the happy couple.
