In December, Siwa opened up about hopes for a future proposal in an interview withThe Sun'sFabulous Magazine. At the time, she joked that if Hughes, 33, hadn't proposed in seven years, she might take matters into her own hands.
"You always get people who get engaged [at] Christmas. You see it on Instagram, every year you're gonna see somebody who gets engaged. I kinda like the idea of it not being at a time where it could be expected," he said.
She jokingly replied, "Alright, you're keeping me guessing, aren't you?" before asking, "But what if I gothima ring?"
Hughes then said he would be "uncomfortable" if he were proposed to rather than being the one to pop the question.
Weeks later, in January, Siwa showed off theCartier Love Ringhe got her for Christmas. Later than month, she posted a photo of herself wearing a veil on Snapchat.
Siwa wrote over the image,"Call me a wife."
At theHannah Montana 20th Anniversary Specialpremiere, which was held at El Capitan Theatre, Siwa also opened up about the impact the fictional character had on her life growing up.
"From the beginning, the whole reason why I wanted this to be my career and I wanted to be in the spotlight and in the public eye was because of Hannah Montana," she says. "From the time I was 2 years old, 'What do you wanna be when you grow up?' Hannah Montana."
