Police mugshot prompts marriage proposals [View all]

[The Straight Story]

A woman's police mugshot has gone viral, prompting declarations of love and even proposals of marriage from around the world.

Meagan Simmons, 27, of Tampa, Florida, was arrested for drink-driving in 2010 and the mugshot photo of her in an orange jumpsuit was recently posted on Reddit.

And the separated mother-of-four has since received an avalanche of gentlemanly attention, including dozens of marriage proposals.

Men added their own corny captions to the mugshot such as 'GUILTY - of taking my breath away', and 'Arrested for breaking and entering - YOUR HEART'.

Social media sites were overtaken by comments from men wanting to marry her, looking for her phone number and asking if she is a model.

One wrote: "Come to Ireland, I'll put you up for a while and you can work in my friend's pub while you find your feet, look up your family history and then move on to something better."
