When you’re celebrating your 36th birthday on a boat in Marina del Rey, California, surrounded by about 100 of your closest friends and family, why not make it a night nobody forgets? That’s exactly what Bryce Hirschberg, the carefree surfer who won hearts on Netflix’s Too Hot to Handle when it premiered in 2020, decided to do on Saturday—he proposed to his longtime girlfriend Rebecca Saffron.
The“Too Hot to Handle”star popped the question after four years together, according to his rep Zack Teperman. But Bryce didn’t just have one reason to celebrate. His new film had just been accepted into the Raindance Film Festival, so the party was already primed to be legendary. When Rebecca said yes, the entire crowd erupted, turning an already massive birthday bash into a full-blown engagement party.
It’s the kind of moment that feels almost too perfect to be real—the surfer energy that made Bryce a fan favorite on the show hasn’t gone anywhere, and now he’s trading the carefree party lifestyle for the next chapter: married life. After appearing on a Netflix show designed to test his ability to stay away from temptation, he’s clearly found something worth committing to. And after four years together, Rebecca obviously felt the same way when he dropped to one knee on the water in California.
