David Draiman Surprises Girlfriend with Onstage Marriage Proposal at Disturbed Show: Watch
The post David Draiman Surprises Girlfriend with Onstage Marriage Proposal at Disturbed Show: Watch appeared first on Consequence.
Disturbed frontman David Draiman had a big surprise for his girlfriend Sarah Uli during the band's concert at Golden 1 Center on Friday (May 9th) in Sacramento, California. The singer called Uli onstage, and proceeded to propose to her, to which she said, 'Yes.'
At a quiet point in the set, after the band had played their famous cover of Simon & Garfunkel's 'The Sound of Silence,' the heartwarming moment happened when Draiman took the stage by himself and asked Uli to come up from where she was standing in the front of the audience.

As he pulled her in close to him, he said, 'Everyone say hello to my lovely lady Sarah. She's looking at me and she's wondering, 'What the fuck is he doing?' Sarah, my love. You have made my life so much better. You are the light in the darkness for me. I love you more than anything I have ever loved in this world.'
Draiman then started to reach into his pocket and grab a ring and kneel down on one knee, continuing, 'And it would be the absolute pinnacle of my life and my existence… Sarah Uli, will you marry me?'
Uli then responded affirmatively, and the two shared a long kiss, with Draiman, adding, 'In case you didn't hear, she said yes.' With Uli shedding tears of joy, the two embraced once more, before she left the stage, and Draiman's bandmates returned to play two more tunes to close out the 19-song set.
Draiman had previously been married to Lena Yada, with whom he shares a son named Samuel Bear. The two divorced in 2023 after 11 years of marriage.
Following that divorce, the Disturbed singer went through a dark time, even telling the audience at a May 2023 concert that he had recently battled suicidal thoughts. It also later came to light that Draiman was dealing with a mold issue at his Florida rental house at the time that led to debilitating health issues.
Thankfully, things are looking much brighter for David Draiman these days. Our congratulations go out to him and Sarah Uli on their engagement. Watch it all go down in the Instagram post below.
Disturbed have a few more dates left on their North American tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of their multiplatinum debut album, The Sickness. Tickets to the remaining shows are available here.
