Love wasn’t the only emotion in the air duringHoward Stern‘s impromptu re-proposal to wife Beth.
Sternpopped the question(again!) to his wife of 11 years while onJimmy Kimmel Live!earlier this month. And on his own SiriusXM show Tuesday, the King of All Media told the late-night host that his wife wasn’t initially thrilled about the gesture.
“I said to your producer, ‘Don’t tell my wife, but just sit her somewhere I can grab her pretty easily,'” he said onThe Howard Stern Showwhile chatting withJimmy Kimmel. “She was pissed off at me, because she said, ‘You could have given me a heads up.’ But then it wouldn’t have been good.”
Stern, 65, also said he expected his wife, 47, to reject his proposal — like she had done in the past.
“I thought it would be funny, ’cause my wife would reject me again,” he added. “So when she said yes, I was really caught off-guard.”
During the proposal, the radio host then got down on one knee and sweetly told his wife, “Darling, you know you have given me the best years of my life. I love you so much. Youdo so much for animal rescue. You know how I feel about you. I’m gonna say to you now, in front of all of my best friends, my sweet love, will you marry me again?”
Beth responded “yes,” and the two shared a sweet kiss on stage as the audience clapped and cheered.

A few days later, thecouple got remarriedin Los Angeles in a surprise ceremony onTheEllen DeGeneresShow.
The pair then sealed the deal with a kiss. Per Jewish tradition, Sternalso broke a glass, crushing it with his right foot.
While Stern said his wife was a “good sport” during the wedding, she again wasn’t pleased about the surprise.
“Beth was not up for it, she wasn’t dressed for it,” he said. “But she was a good sport about it.”
