MrBeast gets engaged to long-time girlfriend: 5 things about Thea Booysen

The internet is going crazy about one more thing, besides the ‘grapes under the table’ tradition. Possibly the richest YouTuber globally, MrBeast (real name Jimmy Donaldson), recently proposed to girlfriend Thea Booysen in an intimate Christmas surprise.

The proposal took place at their home. Surrounded by family members, Jimmy proposed to Thea and she immediately accepted. The proposal clip is doing the rounds on social media, and netizens are expressing their admirable surprise about it.

“So I kinda did a thing” – MrBeast gets engaged to Thea Booysen

In a clip, Thea has been asked to close her eyes – and as she opens them up again, she could find her boyfriend Jimmy on one knee, proposing. “So I kinda did a thing,” MrBeast captioned one of his posts that carry stunning pictures from the intimate gathering.

Jimmy and Thea met each other for the first time back in 2022, introduced through a mutual friend. He had been to South Africa at the time for a trip. Cut to 2025, the duo are making global headlines for all the right reasons.

There is also some chatter about the size of the diamond on Thea’s ring. MrBeast is prominent across the globe for his signature grandeur and affinity for challenges. Some netizens are disappointed that he “didn’t make her earn it in some kind of challenge.”

Just like MrBeast, Thea Booysen is also a popular content creator. Her gaming handle, TheaBeasty, is quite prominent on the internet. In recent years, she has built a strong reputation as an Esports commentator and professional gamer.

2. Strong academic background

In 2022, Thea graduated from the prestigious Stellenbosch University, earning a bachelor’s degree in law and an honours degree in psychology. Last year, she completed her master’s degree in neuropsychology at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland.

Thea’s academic pursuits reflect her deep interest in understanding the human mind, a theme that also influences her creative adventures. She is a published author. She started giving ‘The Marked Children’ a shape during her high school years. It got published in 2022.

4. Thea Booysen defends MrBeast

This story is quite an underrated one. Thea stood by her boyfriend Jimmy’s side as clips of him using insensitive language resurfaced online alongside an ongoing legal suit alleging “unsafe” conditions on his Beast Games.

She shared her thoughts as a fan urged her to break up. “I appreciate the message. There is so much that is not being said … Half the things that are said are not true. I wouldn’t be with him if they were. It is so important to me to be a good person.”

5. ‘More Than Human’

Besides her interest in professional gaming and Esports commentary, Thea Booysen also runs an YouTube channel by the name ‘More Than Human‘. It has more than 11,500 subscribers and delves into different psychological topics.
