Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont was scheduled to appear on Late Night with Seth Meyers Thursday evening, but had to cancel last minute. Instead, they brought in the natural replacement: Saturday Night Live’s Aidy Bryant.
In addition to fielding questions from Seth about Donald Trump’s new tax plan, Aidy—putting aside her senator hat for a moment—also shared the story of her recent engagement to her long-term boyfriend, comedian Conner O’Malley. While most celebrity proposal stories are self-indulgent and boring, Aidy and Conner’s is a delight, even featuring a confused dog in a bow tie.
