"Love Actually" star Thomas Brodie-Sangster recently shared news of his engagement to actress Talulah Riley with a reference to the iconic romantic comedy.

The actor, who played Sam, the stepson of Liam Neeson's character Daniel, in the 2003 hit, shared a photo with Riley Thursday, which he captioned, "Happy to announce that Talulah and I are engaged. Love is all around X".

Many felt that the last line of his post was a subtle reference to Hugh Grant's monologue in the film, in which his character famously says, "If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around."
