The British couple who lost their engagement ring when it fell into a grate in Times Square have been reunited with the jewelry from the two NYPD cops who found it.
And, after all the drama of the last two weeks, John Drennan decided to get down on one knee and ask his fiance Daniella Anthony to be his wife again.
John, 36, and Daniella, 34, were talking about the heartbreaking moment they lost the ring during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The pair made headlines earlier this month when they were captured on camera frantically searching for the ring in a grate after it slipped off Daniella's finger.

John Drennan and Daniella Anthony, the British couple who lost their engagement ring after it fell down a grate in Times Square, have been reunited with the special jewelry
Ellen DeGeneres brought out the two NYPD officers who retrieved the ring from the grate for the Thursday episode of her show
John and Daniella made headlines earlier this month after they were seen on surveillance cameras frantically searching for the ring in Times Square
By the time the ring was found by the New York Police Department, the couple were already more than 3,000 miles away in their native Peterborough.
But they returned to the US for the show, and Ellen couldn't resist pulling a few heartwarming surprises for the newly engaged couple.
John reveals in Thursday's episode that he and Daniella had only found out that the NYPD was desperately searching for them after he received a message from a friend asking 'Is this you guys?'
The couple hadn't told their family about losing the ring, not wanting to put a 'negative spin' on their engagement.
But when John saw the tweet from the NYPD, he was overjoyed.
Ellen flew the two NYPD cops out to her Burbank, California studio so that she could reunite the couple with the ring and let them thank the officers who found it
The officers handed the couple the ring as one joked 'I think you guys dropped something'
The NYPD later put a call out on social media asking for help locating the couple because officers had luckily managed to retrieve the engagement ring
'I was like, "Daniella, they found our ring, they found our ring!"' John recalls. 'I don't know anywhere in the world where a police department, or two police officers - they went back the next day.'
'And where is the ring now?' asks Ellen, whose show is shot in Burbank, California.
'Still with the New York Police Department,' John replies.
'That's right, they are,' she says, before adding 'Come on out!'
Then, as Beyonce's Single Ladies blasts in the background, the two NYPD officers who found the couple's ring walk onto the stage in full uniform.
'Oh my god!' Daniella exclaims, her hands covering her mouth in shock.
The couple get up to hug the police officers, who then join them on Ellen's couch.
John shows the ring to Daniella, who looks overjoyed as she's reunited with the special piece of jewelry
John then got down on one knee and proposed to Daniella again with the ring in an emotional moment on the episode
'I think you guys dropped something,' one of the officers tells John and Daniella as he takes out a box with the ring inside.
John takes the box and jokes, 'One moment, there's no grates or anything like that?'
He then opens the box and looks at the ring as one of the cops asks, 'That is the ring, right?'
John shows the ring to Daniella before he gets down on one knee right then and there on the stage.
'Will you be my wife?' he asks.
'Yes,' she says through her tears as he puts the ring on her finger once again.
The couple also opened up more about their first proposal, which happened in Manhattan's Central Park
Before the episode came to an end, Ellen presented the couple with a $10,000 check for an early wedding gift
Following the emotional moment, one of the cops reveals that they brought ring adjusters so that it wouldn't fall off Daniella's finger this time.
The couple also opened up more about their first proposal, which happened in Manhattan's Central Park, during their interview with Ellen.
John revealed he had been walking around New York for two days with the ring in his pocket, waiting for the perfect moment to pop the question.
'Central Park, one of the most beautiful places in New York, it just felt right,' he said.
After Daniella spent some time playing in the leaves, he dropped down on one knee.
They later went to a Broadway show and, before going out to wander Times Square, Daniella warned John that the ring might be too big for her finger.
'I actually said, "John, it's a little bit big, I really don't know if I want to wear the ring,"' she recalled. 'He insisted.'
'Daniella we just got engaged, 10 years we've been together, 10 years you've waited on this ring. Come on, it's staying on your finger, it'll be fine, let's go,' John remembered telling his new fiance.
Officers had posted these surveillance images of the couple and a photo of the engagement ring on Twitter as they tried to find Daniella and John, who had already returned to the UK
'So, your fault,' Ellen remarked as the audience laughed.
The couple then went out and walked around Times Square. At one point John went to grab Daniella's hand and the ring suddenly slipped off.
'In slow motion, I can still visualize this,' he said. 'It bounces once, it bounces twice, and then right into the grate.'
'It was every girl's nightmare,' Daniella added.
The couple said many people stopped on the street to console them, including a little girl who gave Daniella a hug and told her not to worry.
'I was sobbing,' John said. 'I never want to see Daniella that upset in my life again.'
'From joy and happiness to absolute devastation. And I'm trying to pull up at this grate, trying my best to pull this thing up - those things don't move!'
A friend of the couple saw the NYPD's tweets on Twitter and they soon learned of the happy news, which the NYPD shared in tweets
Daniella then called over an NYPD officer, who radioed for more help.
'They sealed off the place, they got the special equipment out, opened up the grate, down there - torches - having a look,' John recalled.
'After, it must have been an hour-and-a-half to two hours, they just said "Sorry."'
The couple were absolutely devastated, but little did they know two police officers had gone back to look for the ring again the next day.
Officers posted surveillance images of the couple and a photo of the engagement ring on Twitter as they asked for help locating Daniella and John.
The couple said they now plan to enjoy being engaged for a bit and are thinking of a June 2020 wedding.
But before they left, Ellen presented them with one final gift - a check for $10,000 to help with their wedding.
Now that's a second proposal the couple will be sure to never forget.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
