Mario Lopez is about the break a whole lot of hearts…

The 38-year-old Mexican-American television host proposed to Courtney Mazza—the mother of his daughter Gia— over the New Year’s weekend in Ixtapa, Mexico, according to US Weekly.

The Saved by the Bell actor got romantic before asking Mazza to spend the rest of her life with him.

“We took a walk alone as the sun was setting,” Lopez told US Weekly. “I told Courtney that I wanted the mother of my children to have their last name. She was silent at first from shock, then she leaped for joy and did a little jete!”

Lopez plans to say his vows with his fiancée in Mexico sometime this year.

“Besides our daughter’s birth, this was the best moment of my life!” Mazza added.
