Disturbed singer David Draiman is down with the nuptials. The 52-year-old hard rock singer popped the question to girlfriend model Sarah Uli during a surprise moment at his band’s Disturbed: The Sickness 25th anniversary concert in Sacramento, CA on Friday night (May 9).
During the show at the Golden 1 Center honoring the band’s landmark 2000 album, Draiman paused things for a few minutes after the group’s beloved Simon & Garfunkel “The Sound of Silence” cover for a bit of personal business. “At this time, I would like to call miss Sarah Uli to the stage please,” Draiman is heard saying in a video of the moment.
Dressed in his traditional black pants and sleeveless black t-shirt, Draiman invited his beloved to join him center stage as she looks around seemingly confused while he takes her hand. “Everyone say hello to my lovely lady Sarah,” he continued. “She’s looking at me and she’s wondering, ‘What the f–k is he doing?’ Sarah, my love. You have made my life so much better,” Draiman said, pulling Uli close and staring deeply into her eyes.
“You are the light in the darkness for me. I love you more than anything I have ever loved in this world, and it would be the absolute pinnacle of my life and my existence,” he added, while pulling a ring box out of his pocket and getting down on one knee as Uli covered her face. “Sarah Uli, will you marry me?”
The crowd went wild when the two shared a passionate kiss afterwards, with Draiman assuring them, “In case you didn’t hear, she said yes.” Uli posted pics of the moment with the caption, “the happiest moment ever with the love of my life.” The marriage will mark the second for Draiman, who was previously married to model/actress Lena Yada from 2011-2023; the couple share a 12-year-old son.
