A woman from California is getting the internet all riled-up in a desperate search for a couple she photographed getting engaged on top of the Eiffel Tower.

Jen Hurd Bohn was on holiday in Paris with her husband, Jeff, two weeks ago, when she snapped a gentleman popping the question to his other-half on top of one of the most-visited monuments in the world.

Mrs Bohn described how she got caught-up in a queue after taking the photos and wasn’t able to reach the happy couple to let them know she had caught their special moment on camera.

Now, she’s launched an appeal on Facebook to track them down so that she can give them the photographs of the romantic proposal as keepsakes.

Writing on Facebook, she says: ‘Saw this guy propose to this girl on the Eiffel Tower Sunday 6/21/15. Wanted to send them the pics but was stuck in line. Help me find them! If that was me I would want these pics’.

The photographs have been shared online over 200,000 times and they show the woman’s ecstatic and emotional reaction as her partner whips out a ring against the stunning Paris backdrop.
