John Connors Proposes to Danielle Magennis in Dublin
John Connors proposed to Danielle Magennis in Dublin just before the couple recorded an episode of their spiritual podcast, Reclaim The Faith. The actor had carefully selected an engagement ring for Danielle, who was deeply surprised by the gesture. Connors shared the details of the proposal in a recent interview:
John stated: “We were just in Dublin when I popped the question, just before doing a podcast, then she was shook for the whole podcast. I had a ring picked out for her.”

A Whirlwind Romance Blossoms from Friendship
Though their engagement may seem sudden, John and Danielle’s relationship is built on a solid foundation of friendship spanning six years. Their bond deepened recently, leading to a romantic connection that took both by surprise. Danielle acknowledged the unexpected pace of their relationship:
Danielle expressed: “It’s been a whirlwind, I was very surprised I said ‘yes’, because I’ve always been quite guarded. I’ve never really had a relationship. I wouldn’t really let anybody in.”
She credited a personal testimony she gave earlier in the year about her fears of vulnerability as a turning point. Shortly after, John reached out, and their rekindled friendship quickly grew into a loving partnership.
Spiritual Partnership and Creative Collaborations
Beyond their romantic relationship, John and Danielle are creative and spiritual partners. They co-host the podcast Reclaim The Faith, which focuses on spiritual transformation and personal testimonies. The podcast has resonated deeply with audiences, offering what John describes as “nourishment” for those seeking faith-based content in Ireland. He explained:
John shared: “It’s all sort of darkness into light testimonies, what we mostly had so far — people who have been sort of to the pits of hell in their life and through finding god, came into the light and transformed and changed mentally. Spiritual transformation, I suppose.”
John also credits his spiritual journey, including adopting a meat-only diet, with transforming his mental health and physical well-being. He believes their partnership is divinely guided, adding a deeper layer to their personal and professional synergy.
