The much-anticipated finale of The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On season 3 aired on Wednesday, December 18, 2024, bringing the season to an emotional close. The episode featured the final moments for the remaining couples, facing the ultimate decision: marry or move on. While some couples chose to part ways, others, including Caleb and Mariah, took a leap of faith and got engaged.
The Journey to Engagement
Throughout the season, Mariah issued an ultimatum to Caleb, hoping for a commitment to marriage. Mariah was ready to settle down, but Caleb hesitated, worried that Mariah might not be making the right choice. Over the course of the experiment, the couple went through their fair share of ups and downs, often struggling with their differing desires and unresolved feelings. But through it all, they slowly learned to understand each other better and work through their issues.
In the season finale, Episode 9: Ultimatum Day, Caleb took a big step forward and proposed to Mariah. The moment surprised Mariah, and she was visibly overwhelmed by it. She happily accepted the ring with joy and excitement and shared her thoughts with the cameras.
Mariah’s Emotional Response
Before the ceremony, Mariah had been uncertain about Caleb’s intentions. She worried that Caleb might not have fully decided on their future together, and the tension leading up to the proposal had her second-guessing their relationship. However, Mariah’s emotional reaction spoke volumes when the proposal finally happened.
“It’s so surreal,” she said, her voice filled with happiness and disbelief. The engagement was a testament to their journey, one full of doubts, growth, and ultimately, a shared commitment to their future.
