Zooey Deschanel’s children were surprised over her engagement to Jonathan Scott

Earlier, Deschanel and Scott revealed that her little children were in shock on her engagement day, as they believed that she and Scott were already married.

The 45-year-old film producer told PEOPLE, “When Elsie turned around and read [the sign], that was the first time she learned. And she immediately goes, 'Huh, did you just get married?’”

He shared, “And we're like, 'Well, no, not yet, but we got engaged.' And she's like, 'Does that mean I get to be a flower girl?' And we're like, 'Yes. Yes, you can.' So it was really sweet to have them there too.”

Deschanel then added, “So cute. It was so special.”

‘Happy Father’s Day to all who father and nurture and mentor’
