Mason Dye's Surprise Engagement: A Valentine’s Day to Remember!
SPILL THE TEA: Stranger Things Actor Mason Dye Secretly Got Engaged on Valentine's Day!
Get ready for a juicy scoop, folks! Mason Dye, the talented actor known for his roles in Stranger Things and Teen Wolf, has just revealed that he secretly got engaged to his girlfriend Carmen Joiner on Valentine's Day. And trust us, this engagement story is a wild ride!
According to People Magazine (via thescholarlynote.com), Mason planned an elaborate evening with fake dinner reservations at their favorite restaurant to throw off his unsuspecting bride-to-be. But Carmen was not oblivious; she recalled that "Valentine's Day felt way too obvious" and added, "so it completely went over my head."
After popping the question, Mason surprised Carmen with a romantic getaway to Chateau Elan in North Georgia, where they spent two days indulging in spa treatments and quality time together. And if that wasn't enough, their loved ones had one more surprise up their sleeve: when they returned home, their family, friends, and even their cat Willow were waiting with a party to celebrate their engagement!
But here's the best part: Mason's parents flew in from Oklahoma (yes, you read that right - Oklahoma!) to make the celebration even more special. Talk about going all out! And if you're wondering what's next for this power couple, they're set to tie the knot on June 7 at the Wychmere Beach Club in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Carmen, an associate district manager for ADP TotalSource, shared with thescholarlynote.com that they chose a destination wedding because they wanted their friends and family from all over the country to join them. And let's be real, who wouldn't want to get married on a picturesque beach in Cape Cod? "We wanted something coastal and romantic," Carmen explained. "Something on the water, where our friends and family would love to visit."
But what about Mason's career? The Oklahoma native (with 381K Instagram followers) is set to star as combat pilot-turned-junkie Bombsight in Amazon Prime Video's upcoming series Vought Rising, a prequel to The Boys. And if you're a fan of Stranger Things, you'll be happy to know that Mason will reprise his role as Jason Carver in the show... but don't get too excited just yet, folks! He's got some unfinished business with Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) before he can return to Hawkins.
Mason has been keeping busy on Instagram, where he recently posted about starting production for Vought Rising: "So excited to be apart of this!" And speaking of exciting projects, Mason will also be joining Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy and Aya Cash's Stormfront in the twisted murder mystery.
But before all these new adventures begin, let's get back to the love story that stole our hearts. When asked about how they met, Carmen revealed that it was through a mutual friend (because who needs Tinder or Bumble when you've got friends, am I right?). And the rest is history! After going Instagram official in 2021, Mason and Carmen are now on their way to becoming Mr. and Mrs.
We can't wait to see what's next for these two lovebirds. Congratulations, Mason and Carmen!
Update: Mason's sister Tae Dye is part of the country-pop duo Maddie & Tae - small world, right?
