Circus of Horrors strongman Steve Stevens proposes to partner on stage in Manchester

  • last year
A woman says she "could have throttled" her strongman boyfriend when he dragged her onstage in front of thousands of strangers and popped the question.

Victoria Edwards, 29, said she was "mortified" and "could have killed" her world record-breaking partner, Steve Stevens, 32, when he pulled her on stage on 23 October last year at one of his shows.

While flexing his muscles and performing at Bowler’s Exhibition Centre, Manchester, Steve insisted Victoria appear in front of over 3,000 screaming fans - much to her horror.

Steve - who performs as Titan in the Circus of Horrors at Blackpool Pleasure Beach - then dropped to one knee and asked her to marry him in what he says was “his riskiest stunt yet”.

Victoria said 'yes' and the couple are planning to tie the knot with a small ceremony at a hotel in Preston in June 2024.
