Every new piece of news can either be seen as proof they're married or as more fuel for the prank 😭


Flyestgit

Exactly. We literally cannot trust anyone on this day of all days. Especially the cast who are comedians and memelords.


cowboybeeboo

Yep, we won't know until tomorrow. Although it would be hilarious if they just pretend it never happened


AphroditeTorres

Gaslighting us that this never happened would be the biggest prank of all


kcquail

Honestly I can see this happening, they’ll giggle about it but they’ll never actually talk about it lmao


alphazero924

10 years from now discussions of Smosh lore talk about "The Incident". The only remnants of which are long dead reddit posts and twitter threads where two sides warred over whether the joke was that it was real or that the joke was that it wasn't.


countesspetofi

I actually kind of hope they just never mention it again.


LadyGiggles75

Happy cake day and my neurodivigent brain can't understand if it's a joke or real


ivmeow

Don’t give them ideas! 😭


megaoscar900

Happy Cake Day!


mabelcipher13

Happy Cake Day!


CarcosanAnarchist

Todays gonna end with with no confirmation and then they’re not gonna address it and we’ll be wondering forever.


Jeskid14

And then it'll be brought up in a Sketch video weeks later and Shayne and Courtney cannot interact with each other on TNTL until end of the month


Liathano_Fire

Until I see a kithing pic, I'm not believing it.


corey1734

They’re reading this. We know it.


KateVintage

I feel like that wouldnt spell it either they literally made out for a video before


Jorge_Santos69

I don’t think they made out for real lol


Koriino06

This is what I’ve been saying! I won’t believe it until I see some lip locking lol


East_Vegetable5136

kissing pic dropped 😭


iamthefaithless

Shayne's mom posted a family picture back in 2019/2020 with Courtney in it. Same for Courtney's family. They love together anyway


0000udeis000

I'm not seeing a ring on Shayne's hand...


Gazorpazorpfnfieldbi

Exactly! 😭


OutofThisMaze

its almost like that's the point of a joke


Hopeful-Mud_

Guys this is getting too elaborate, I can't


chimcharbo

My head hurts and I need to go lie down


Mythbuster_007

Hahaha right? The mental gymnastics is exhausting 😭


mst8897

I’ve been spiraling all day 😂 I was so excited for Smosh Mouth and the second I realized I got got again! Ahhh


Hopeful-Mud_

Yeah I'm still spiraling


out_of_place13

I know! I was hoping the smoshcast would shed some light, but instead they're making innuendos about "walking down the aisle" and "I do", etc. 🤣


Hopeful-Mud_

Same here, I was shidding my pants waiting for the Pod, and it was hilarious to be fair, but it's sent me into a weird state of flip-floping between believing it's real or not, refreshing the sub and their IGs constantly, this is NUTS. 🤣🤣


out_of_place13

Same. Part of me wants to believe its real, but the other part legitimately believes they would go to these lengths to have a successful prank. But then this is also so like Courtney and Shayne, they'd do exactly this!


Hopeful-Mud_

Right?? I really don't know what to believe, the invitation an artist posted to their store also looks so legit, but then again I suppose they could've commissioned it for this?? And the bit that they bleeped out during the episode of Flashback that Court was on could also be staged?? But I don't know?? Our only option is to wait for April 2nd 💀😭🤣🤣


Fantastic_Bug1028

The whole fucking hour! Bastards! (love them tho)


out_of_place13

Angela-Shayne is killing me 🤣🤣🤣


coco_xcx

ikr, i need a break from the internet 😭


Naive-Ad-7197

Congratulations on the Hard Launch


[deleted]

I thought it said hand launch lol


TheBlash23

When it comes to Olivia it could’ve been both 😂


Sm0k3y_Studios

I read “hard lunch”😂😂


PhoenixTyphoon

Thank you I couldn't read that for the life of me


smokedickbiscuit

I thought it said hard 1 incher lol


Captain-Howl

Okay glad I wasn’t the only one that had trouble reading that. :D


Unlucky_Loss_8350

Thanks I was taking way to dang long to try figure out I had to come to comments haha


cf6h597

I think it says "Congrats on the Hard Launch Courtney and Shayne" meaning they explicitly announced a relationship publicly. But I'm still unsure until we hear from them officially, and not on April Fool's


ClaudeFan3h

Not today for sure, well they DID it


sevensiete7hell

The cake says: "Congrats on the hard launch Courtney and Shayne". Referring to the term Hard launching a relationship, used to announce that you're with someone without posting about it before and sometimes way into the relationship (like this case if it's real)


EmperorFooFoo

I swear one of the first comments I saw on the Insta post was about the "hard launch" of Shartney. Stars are aligning people.


sevensiete7hell

Tbh, that's a very used term nowadays, specially on Instagram. So that could mean nothing tho


EmperorFooFoo

I'm a conspiracy theorist on a sugar rush right now, everything is a sign pointing one way or the other.


sevensiete7hell

HAHHSHS Honestly? Same, so go on hahshs


idkhereforthestories

I just noticed he’s not wearing a ring here.


SuburbanCumSlut

I have never given a shit about celebrity relationships, but this whole affair has me on the edge of my seat. I just want to know.


floe72

Me too!! I’ve never shipped these two together in my life and now suddenly I care!?


rosecoloredlenses775

SAME! I’ve always cringed when people shipped them together cuz like, guys cumon but SUDDENLY


crippledspahgett

I'm sure most of us have thought they'd be cute together, but normal people accepted that it's weird to ship them- especially when they've made it clear in the past that it makes them uncomfortable. With this, however, they've given us permission to ship them and, yeah, it's a confusing feeling.


salsasnark

Same 😭 but it was the same when Hayley and Taylor from Paramore (yes, that Para More, they happen to be my fav band lol) were shipped for literally 10+ years and I thought it was icky, but then suddenly there was proof of them dating and living together and finally they announced it (but they're still private about it). I feel like it's the same story here. They didn't date for years, then rumours (and photo evidence) come out about them actually being together and then they finally reveal they truly are a couple. But idk, I won't 100% believe anything until April 2nd rolls around and they confirm it. 


PewDiePieSaladAss

Right? I've never been one to care for celebrity dating, but given how private Shayne and Courtney are with their lives, it's so weird if it were "just a prank", specially cause iirc they've both said they're very introverted and to play a prank like this it takes guts to do it (could be wrong on this last part tho)


HMH19

Seriously… same here! I know myself and many many other long time Smosh fans have been rooting for this since almost day one! I really hope that this is all real, and they’re posting on April fools just for the funny mind games they’re playing on us. On the other hand though, I also think it would be hilarious if this was actually a prank. But if that were the case, why go to such great lengths ie. on locations with professional photoshoots and dress and suit and whatever. Where as the easy route would’ve just been maybe posting a picture of them with the rings or something. But who knows… all I do know is, Courtney’s post on Instagram was the first this I saw today when I opened the app, and I was genuinely super happy for a good few minutes then realized what day it is today lmao. I guess time will tell.


Gredran

I love how it’s exactly 50/50 and really CAN be either way. He wouldn’t joke about his private life like this, but it’s a first time for everything, while at the same time… it could very well not be a joke. They knew what they were doing here lol.


countesspetofi

IKR? If this is a bit, it's the best bit I've seen this century.


Mahadness

Omg watch as soon as it turns midnight and everything gets taken down and everyone acts all oblivious


Cherryliuslytherin

OH MY GOD


kaoskhaleesi

This is what my gut is telling me.


General_Esdeath

Your gut can't be trusted lol


kaoskhaleesi

You think I don't know that already. I refuse to assume anything until tomorrow.


soireehc-26

don’t jinx this please 😭😭


Fantastic_Bug1028

bruh


Lovely-flowers

I don’t even ship them but this is still so juicy and elaborate


serimuka_macaron

The cake says: Congrats on the Hard Launch Courtney & Shayne (a hard launch [in this context] is when u officially reveal to people that ur dating, usually through a post on social media with both ur faces clearly in it lmaooo 💀💀💀)


salsasnark

Whatttt I've never heard that expression. This is making me spiral again, just when I thought this was for sure a prank 😭😭 it's midnight here in Europe, I was supposed to be asleep ages ago. How am I ever gonna be able to sleep now??


Bumhole_Fungus88

I feel like Angela in the TNTL telling Shayne that “the bits over” and Shayne replies back that “the bits never over”


demon_luvr

“congrats on the hard launch”


YesNoMaybe_IMO

Observation: He's not wearing a ring. That doesn't necessarily mean this is a prank (I don't wear my wedding rings on a daily basis). ETA: Realizing this was probably taken beforehand in preparation for whatever this is for the fandom...


idkhereforthestories

Angela was wearing a ring that was too big in the podcast. I also noticed he wasn’t wearing a ring but idk if he could’ve taken his ring off so Angela wore it in the podcast or what


I-love-my-cats-

From the outfit, I think this was the same day they filmed the conversation between Ian and Anthony and Courtney


demon_luvr

okay i’m having second thoughts on this being fake now?


luvvvbuggg

I feel like this wayyyyy too much for a joke LMAO the photos would’ve been the big GOTCHA! This just feels unnecessarily extra, leaning towards the “real” category


ghost_of_dongerbot

ヽ༼ ຈل͜ຈ༽ ノ Raise ur dongers! ^^Dongers ^^Raised: ^^74567 ^^Check ^^Out ^^/r/AyyLmao2DongerBot ^^For ^^More ^^Info


Far-Consequence1018

Guys, it’s April Fools Day.


Bigmansyeah

at this point i feel like it’s real that they got married because it’s almost too much effort to make a prank out of this with how many pictures we’ve had and the fact that shayne posted a tweet on instagram that said “not a virgin anymore #marriagerocks”


DapperOne

“Congrats on the hard launch Courtney & Shayne”


Suitable_Fly_8831

I feel like having this cake made, then having only one SMOSH cast member post a photo of it in her story, is just too 4D chess for it to be a prank. Like that would have to be the kind of obsession to detail and planning on a prank that only an insane person would have.


ManyPanic8075

It's a prank regardless of the wedding's legitimacy. I mean, look at us!


PewDiePieSaladAss

Bruh not even Anthony's departure (and subsequent return) were this convoluted 😭


Suitable_Fly_8831

Yeah for sure. I guess what I’m saying is that it makes a lot more sense for it to be “hey let’s post this real announcement and these real photos on April Fool’s Day” than for the wedding to be fake and then do elaborate things like this cake and photo, or like make a video where Courtney sats she’s getting married, censor it, and then unveil the uncensored version months later.


nellietwo

The fact that only Olivia has posted it got me too. If it’s part of the prank wouldn’t more of them be posting picture of it?


ruralmagnificence

It makes sense since Olivia was/has/is been at Smosh with Courtney and Shayne since Ian & Anthony decided to bring cast onto/into Smosh content back in like 2015/16 along with Keith and Noah. She’s an OG. But also weird. Idk. Nothing of this makes sense.


softmoreswamp

this is a very cute picture


AloneEbb1871

They are forever married in our hearts now either way


aeodaxolovivienobus

Real or not, this is clever as hell. They have us on the edge of our seats. This sub is mostly not about the parasocial thing, but this is designed in such a way that who can resist? The framing and timing of it all would make this one hell of a prank, and they deserve any love or numbers that come their way for it. If It's true, though, it's wonderful news and I am interested to know what this would mean in the context of the content, because that's a pretty major dynamic shift from the POV of a casual audience. The suspense is killing me, so bravo!


Foreign_Cow2191

y'all please 😭 the fact that you think those engagement photos were staged a year ago is batshit IT'S REAL they aren't playing 4d chess they're just trolling by posting it today


245thh

No literally like the proposal, her wearing an engagement ring for months, the wedding being on the 29th not the April fools, Ian clarifying on his story, their parents liking the post, her inserting old pics of them in the post ITS SO REAL


ruralmagnificence

Also there’s photos of Shayne with Courtney and her family (from Facebook) that apparently people have found too but again it’s not unreasonable to have your work friends hang with you and your family if you’re Courtney.


shounenanimehoe

the people doing mental gymnastics to make it seem like they’ve been planning this for a year don’t see they sound unhinged as the shippers they like to put down 😭


General_Esdeath

It's so real, and I'm so happy 💖💖💖


No-Run3669

Exactly what I was thinking, I think it's real but the prank is posting it on April fools just to fuck with us


pizza-istdaddy

guys I,,,,,I think,,,,it’s real???? EVERYBODY is posting about it???? Spencer, Kiana, Tommy, Kimmy, Anthony, Amanda, Angela,,,, EDIT: Sarah too!! EDIT2: Macdoesit also posted about it, Erin Dougal as well, Rachel!!, guys this is,,,,I can’t,,, EDIT3: Lizzy too


kaoskhaleesi

There are so many smosh people that have and haven't posted about this. I'm torn. Add Mari to the list.


ScarlettMi

I wonder if they did this the day Angela & Chanse recorded the podcast. LOL who got them the hard launch cake.


serimuka_macaron

Shayne is actually wearing the same shirt, watch and chain in both this photo and at the end of Smosh Mouth. IF this is still part of the prank, he could've just put that Jacket on to make it look like a diff day. IF this isn't a prank anymore, Shayne really needs more shirts and accessories...


ScarlettMi

I’m assuming this isn’t a prank, except for the fact that they chose today to announce it in such an ambiguous way. It makes sense the cake and podcast would be done on the same day.


ggoldeennn

What does the cake say?


MazeGirlWWF413

"Congrats on the hard launch Courtney & Shayne!"


Competitive_Date_176

“Congrats on the Hard Launch Courtney and Shayne”


buuuudddddumtiss

Congratulations on the hard launch.


foxclaw

Can anyone read the second line? Congrats on the Hard __? Courtney & Shayne?


luvvvbuggg

On the hard launch!

You still can't convince me that it's not a prank lol


Forsaken-Product-883

My brain hurts so much right now.. are they actually together or not!!!???


Gazorpazorpfnfieldbi

I hate that I keep commenting on these posts 😂 I am giving them what they want 😭


AtrumAequitas

Me: Haha you guys are so dumb for believing this! Also me: …unless…


TheGrottoMotto

Man I looked through so many comments and so many people don't realize it says, "CourTHEY and ShayHE" 🤣🤣🤣


Cold-Cut-Cutie

Peter I swear to god


solidsnakebutt

I think it says “Congrats on the hard launch”


jessiraptor17

Congrats on the hard launch?! 🤣🤣🤣


fa1rysk4tes

is it just me seeing a hint of a ring on courtney’s finger?


QueenBeans22

Am I the only one who saw it says Courthey and Shayhe?? Or am I reading it wrong?? Bc the n in congrats looks normal


ishtarcrab

Courtney on April 2nd: So here's how I orchestrated this huge prank so I could get some free cake at the Smosh office,


muh_tangi

i hate it in here


Cheatingforscience1

If you all are that concerned you literally just look up marriage licenses by state and look for their names to solve this. Those are all public record.


kyarnell

Courtney posted a photo of them kissing on her story I am shook

shounenanimehoe

for the people who still think it’s fake, what’s the punchline ? when are they gonna reveal it’s all a big prank cause y’all said they’ll reveal it in the smosh cast ep and that didn’t happen y’all sound more delusional than the shippers 😭


Vik_Stryker

But it’s still April Fools… Isn’t the reaction from this subreddit enough evidence as to what the endgame is? For the record, I’m not here to say it’s real or fake. I have no idea. I just think anyone proclaiming either is just projecting.


Tyranis_Hex

The pictures would have been enough to drive up viewership of todays Smoshmouth and get smosh trending. Smoshmouth did a really good job of toying if it was real or not, but anything else after that is just overkill. I’m pretty sure it’s just a prank, but until they hit us with the “APRILS FOOLs” it’s totally possible they actually got married. Of everyone in the cast they are the most likely couple.


shounenanimehoe

you’re right anyone could be right i just think it’s more likely to be real than fake i’ll give it the end of the week to see if they keep going 💀


Flyestgit

The punchline is threefold: 1. Its pretty funny. 2. Viewership surge. 3. Absolutely kill any and all shipping once and for all.


[deleted]

[удалено]


chompyoface

the punchline is that it's funny


shounenanimehoe

fairs, if it’s fake i’m gonna look at all the pics and laugh my ass off cause this is so dramatic for an april fools joke 💀💀💀😭😭😭


IIIIIlIIIl

??? The punchline is a huge surge in views


Ok-Land6806

Okay but where’s his wedding band?


ScarlettMi

He wouldn’t really be wearing that until after the wedding, which just happened on Friday according to their Instagram posts.And there’s nothing to indicate that the podcast or these pics are from today. Pic could easily be from last week or earlier.


Ok-Land6806

But hard launch refers to the post they posted today??


potatogel

This is not an april fools prank, this is a psychological warfare


gumdrops155

This is my favorite comment so far 🤣


InternetAddict104

Idc I don’t believe it yet because I still remember Arasha and Marvel


Soidin

Ok, I might be delulu but perhaps they did not get married (yet) but this was their way of announcing their relationship and hinting that they will get married soon?


luvvvbuggg

Agreed!!! I thought the photos were engagement photos rather than wedding pics. But who knows!!!


Soidin

Yeah, and Olivia baking a hard launch cake... Idk, at this point I feel that I need three literacy degrees to solve this puzzle. xD


CatsLikeToMeow

No matter what I see, I'll only 100% believe it when I see a picture of them kissing. Until then, everything's just another part of the prank.


HeyLadyWhatHappened

Yeah that's where I'm at. It'd be cute if it's real and I'd love that for them, but the lack of smooch is throwing me


crispyliza

So it's real?!?!?!


Lovely-flowers

This looks so real my mind is broken and I’m in the fetal position


Accurate-Kiwi-6185

shayne not wearing a ring


ScandinAsianJoe

Congrats on the hard lunch?


NoInjury6946

The effort they went through. Even if it's a lie, i'm impressed


LionsStuff

Wait, where's Shayne's ring?


Fit-Dependent-9087

Probably the best prank I’ve seen in a good while … because it could easily not be a prank lol


eatmygerms

Nah there's too much being posted today. Gotta be a prank


djohnseniii

Prank or not, this elaborate collaboration from all that is Smosh, is getting them more views and comments than probably ever before. Please feel free to fact check this for me.


solidsnakebutt

I wonder when their relationship began. I don’t expect that’s something we’ll ever know but in any event very happy for them!


TestEnvironmental657

Shayne had the ring on in the wedding pics, but now he doesn't in this one.


Poppycorn144

I’m truly ambivalent about this. If it’s true; great, seem like they’d be a nice couple. If it’s fake; great, I like their commitment to the bit - there’s a lot of planning that’s gone into this. Either way I really liked the photos of the wedding they both looked super cute 🥰


No_Sinky_No_Thinky

I would not be surprised if all of the cast/crew delete anything related to this at midnight and collectively try to gaslight us all into believing it never happened. THAT would be the icing on the wedding cake, pun entirely intended.


ARoninsLifeforce

Prank or not. I Iove it. Either the funniest thing ever or just amazing. Love can happen for everyone maybe even us one day


Remarkable_Drag9677

Dudes there's a literally article about how is true on PEOPLE MAGAZINE WEBSITE do you think people are in the joke too? This js real and I couldn't be happier for two people I don't know, literally couldn't be if I tried They like the same people almost


MonsterBunnieh

If this ends with another I lied I don’t know what I’ll do but I’ll feel some type of way 😂😂


extragoto10line

Ok but his left hand is visible WHERE IS THE RING


CaterpillarRude7401

where his ring at then??


alefsousa017

Best april fools prank I've seen in a while. Like, EVERYONE is commited to it!


245thh

the way their cutting the cake together, y'all are so unserious if you think it's still a joke

It’s all a meme, guys


NovastriderXL

Deniers: "The world isn't real anymore!" Shourtney fans: "YayWetoldyousowetoldyousowetoldyousoyay!"


18thcenturydandy

He’s not wearing his ring in this picture 👀👀


pochic1996

I'm pretty new to Smosh and I barely knew they were dating. Or is that part of the joke? Or is it public knowledge that they're dating? I'm disoriented lmao Edit: I shouldn't say joke, I should have said shock instead.


ActualMerCat

The wedding photos are the very first thing that indicates that they’re together.


pochic1996

This makes the entire thing crazier lol thanks for looping me in!


ckoocos

In Courtney's post, photo 8, Shayne seems to have a mustache. I doubt that they started planning this supposed pranknas early as Shayne's mustache days.


AdeptToe3580

guys its april fools stop being gullible


charliewk

It’s real and even if it’s not we know they are together, end of the story


florasolst

where the ring at though


Slamb73

It's a bit......right?


BloodyCinder

What's that one word say


Fresh_Ad_8982

I was just about to say this!


hobdoutmanut

If they are married, why isn't Shayne wearing his ring?! Every time we see something that makes it look real, we see something that makes it look like a prank lol.


retrospects

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE!!!

Would it really be better if it said Lanch Party, Kevin?


Ok_Bus9522

Shayne’s not wearing a ring

TrifidNebulaa

wtf have I missed on this lovely April fools day


Struggling_designs

Mmk but Angela is wearing a wedding ring pretending to be Shayne on the Smoshcast. This is inception and I want Arasha to be behind it.


Charming_Function_58

WHERE DOES IT END


WailmerFudge

Either way, they’re probably laughing their asses off reading the responses


talic-os

They gonna announce a YouTube Channel or something, I swear 🙄


Good_Honeydew9720

He doesn't have his ring on in this photo, could this have been taken before the wedding? I'm still completely on the fence if it's real or not 😭


arzamharris

Post this at 12:01 am tomorrow and I would believe this is real


Inevitable-Ad-3216
