BroadwayWorld would like to congratulate Jerry Mitchell and Ricky Schroeder on their recent engagement!

The couple took to Instagram to announce that, after 8 years, they are engaged.

"After just about 8 years it was probably time one of us bent the knee," Schroeder wrote. "Jerry beat me to it. I've planned on spending the rest of our lives together for a while now, but having a ring and making it official means the world to me."
