Let’s talk about one of the most memorable moments in recent pop culture: Howard Stern's re-proposal to his wife, Beth Ostrosky, live on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in early October. Now, I know what you’re thinking—this must have been the happiest moment ever for Beth, right? Well, not so fast. As it turns out, Beth wasn’t exactly thrilled about being blindsided with such a public gesture. In fact, she was downright upset. On his SiriusXM show on October 22, Howard revealed that Beth was “pissed off” when he surprised her with this re-proposal in front of millions of viewers.
Why Was Beth So Mad?
Here’s the backstory: Howard wanted to make the moment special but decided to keep it a secret from Beth. During an episode of The Howard Stern Show, Howard explained to his guest Jimmy Kimmel, “I said to your producer, ‘Don’t tell my wife, but just sit her somewhere I can grab her pretty easily.’” Sounds romantic, right? Not so much for Beth. She was furious because she felt Howard could have at least given her a heads-up. But Howard pointed out that if he had, it wouldn’t have been nearly as dramatic or exciting. And let’s be honest, Howard Stern isn’t exactly known for playing it safe.
Howard’s Expectations vs. Reality
Here’s where things get even more interesting. Despite all the planning and drama, Howard actually expected Beth to reject him again. Yes, you read that right. He joked during the show, “By the way, she was supposed to say no in my mind!” Howard went on to explain that when they were on vacation in Tennessee years ago, Beth initially said no to his first proposal. Talk about a plot twist! But as we all know, Beth eventually changed her mind, and they tied the knot in 2008.

Howard admitted that he thought it would be hilarious if Beth rejected him again. “So when she said yes, I was really caught off-guard,” he confessed. It seems like Howard’s sense of humor knows no bounds, even when it comes to matters of the heart.
The Sweet Moment on TV
Of course, Beth’s reaction wasn’t entirely negative. Even though she was upset about the surprise, she still smiled warmly as Howard got down on one knee. The moment was undeniably romantic. Howard poured his heart out, saying, “Darling, you know you have given me the best years of my life. I love you so much. You do so much for animal rescue. You know how I feel about you. I’m gonna say to you now, in front of all of my best friends, my sweet love, will you marry me again?”
