Jaime Staples Proposes to Love of His Life

One of poker’s nicest guys, Jaime Staples, has had success and faced challenges in equal measure, but now he has someone to share them with for the rest of his life – the popular TwitchTV streamer announcing his engagement on Twitter!

English rose Rebecca Carr is the lucky lady, Stapes proposing in romantic Paris, although it took a follow-up tweet with the Eiffel Tower visible for fans to understand the romance element was definitely part of his plans…

His marriage proposal has naturally been met with congratulations from friends and poker fans alike, fellow streamers Lex ‘RaSZi’ Veldhuis and Kevin Martin among them…

The trip to Paris may have ended up with a massive surprise for Rebecca, but it was PokerStars team Online pro Jaime who took the first blow back in September …

Rebecca is proving to be a very decent poker player herself, this year’s WCOOP seeing both members of the happy couple doing well…

..with Jaime getting ‘boyfriend brownie points’ for supporting his better half as she ran deep…

The news is a very welcome happy story for Jaime who has found the going tough recently in relation to his huge bodyfat prop bet with Bill Perkins as we reported a couple of weeks ago, although poker wise he has been doing excellently.

PokerTube wish the happy couple all the very best ‘for the next 50 years’!
