During the morning talk show, McCarthy excitedly shared news of her engagement to Donnie Wahlberg before jumping up and down in front of the audience. Moreover, the 41-year-old bride-to-be shared details about the proposal, including Wahlberg's inclusion of her son, Evan.
"This weekend I was sitting with Donnie … and he went into the other room and out came Evan with a card that said 'Will' and he handed it to me," she explained during the segment. "Then Evan ran away and then came back into the room with the word 'You' and then he ran away and I knew it was happening and I just started crying. And then Evan came back with a card that said 'Marry' but spelled wrong, and then Donnie came out with Evan, and Donnie's shirt said 'Me' with a question mark holding the ring."
