Guy Who Went Viral For Destroying His First Kit Kat Wins the Internet Back With an Epic Proposal

Evan Wilt had no idea the ridicule he was to receive from the masses simply for taking a bite of a Kit Kat — the whole Kit Kat. His then-girlfriend, Haley Byrd, snapped a photo of Evan's attempt at eating the chocolate treat, apparently his first one ever, and didn't sugarcoat (pun intended) how insane his approach was.

"'I don't think I've ever had a Kit Kat before,' my boyfriend remarks before doing THIS," she wrote on Twitter on May 31, alongside a photo of a huge bite taken out of all four sections of Evan's Kit Kat. "He had no idea why I laughed so hard," she wrote in a reply to the original tweet. "Oh, sweet summer child."

The internet was quick to jump onto the trolling bandwagon, as it usually is ready to do at a moment's notice, and Haley's tweet quickly went viral. However, the devoted girlfriend ended up defending Evan in the end, saying that though she understood everyone's outrage over his near-criminal activity, Evan is "a keeper."

A month later, however, Evan took the situation by the horns and won the entire internet back. "'I don't think I've ever proposed before,' I said before doing THIS," Evan's July 3 tweet read. "Sorry folks, [Haley] is forever taken."

That's right — Evan got down on one knee to propose to the woman who gave him embarrassing viral fame . . . with a gorgeous ring hidden inside a Kit Kat bar.

See the couple's Kit Kat journey ahead, from Evan's first bite straight to their adorable candy-themed proposal.
