“Big Sur is an immensely beautiful place… and I knew I wanted to do it there,” he told the host in a video clip shared by the outlet, noting that one of the cliffs there is known as one of the most impressive. populated sea otter zones in California.
'So I thought, “Okay, we're going to hunker down, there's going to be a lot of sea otters everywhere,” and as soon as we walked into the wildlife park, one of the rangers came up and he said, “Hey, just to give you let it be known that we haven't seen sea otters here in months,” he added.

Sprouse explained that he and Palvin both love sea otters, so he tried to include them when he popped the question.
He added, “I thought, OK, we're here anyway, and I'm already in knots on a walk.”
After walking two miles, Sprouse said he “got down on one knee over a beautiful view, did so, thankfully she said yes, and immediately afterwards we saw a little head bobbing out of the water.”
The Big Daddy actor recalled, “And he rolls over on his back and looks up at us.”
Hall, dressed in a snazzy red blazer, said, “The sea otter was there to anoint the moment.”
'He was. It was meant to be because he came up as soon as she said yes,” Dylan shared, before noting that it was the first time either of the animals had been seen in the area “in months.”
The couple said “I do” near the Hungarian capital Budapest in July, a month after confirming their engagement.
Last March, Palvin showed off a diamond engagement ring at the Mammoth Film Festival, but he did not confirm their plans to get married.
Barbara and Dylan dated for six years, after the actor contacted her via a direct message on social media in 2017.

Palvin raved about her friend as he spoke Fashion Australia in 2019 when she said: 'I feel like I've found the perfect man.'
“He's very kind and gentle… That's what I do on my day off: I spend it with the people I love and I'm very much in love right now.”
In March 2023, a source said AND that the Hungarian beauty was engaged and had 'showed her ring to the people'.
The couple had been engaged since September 2022, with Dylan later sharing V magazine: 'We didn't necessarily feel the need to be completely transparent with the public about that aspect of our involvement.'
