PICKING MARRIAGE? American Pickers star Mike Wolfe’s rapid three-word response when asked if he’ll propose to longtime love Leticia Cline

AMERICAN Pickers star Mike Wolfe’s rapid three-word response when asked if he’ll propose to his longtime love Leticia Cline has been revealed in an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun.

The TV star traded his typical antique shop stomping grounds for a glamorous Hollywood date night with his girlfriend to celebrate the premiere of their new movie, Day of Reckoning.

Mike, 60, scored a starring role in the Shaun Silva-directed movie, which also features Billy Zane, while Leticia, 46, had a part riding motorcycles in the outlaw film.

The couple flew into Los Angeles on Monday to attend the premiere and spoke exclusively to The U.S. Sun on the red carpet at the famed Warner Bros. Studios lot in Burbank, CA.

When asked what made him want to take the role of Mark in Day of Reckoning, Mike said: “The biggest thing was [director] Shaun Silva.

“He’s a Nashville guy. I live in Nashville. We’ve collaborated on a few projects together, and he sent me the script, and he’s like, ‘Hey, this is a really small part, but I think you’d be cool for it.’

“So I’m saying yes to more stuff now. You know what I mean? I’ve got to the point where we’ve been doing Pickers for 15 years, and I’m just like, Hey, I’m going to try some other things.

“There’s been a lot of people that are presenting ideas to me. I’m doing another show on History. I’m going to start filming in July. It’s really about like wrap-arounds.

“It’s going to be shot in a studio. I’m excited about just trying different things. I’m 60 now. I got a little girl. She’s 13, and she still loves a lot. I feel really blessed.”

Seeming happier than ever, Mike was then pressed on whether or not he had any proposal plans for his longtime girlfriend – something he quickly squashed.

“Oh no, NO,” Mike rapidly responded when asked if he planned on popping the question anytime soon.

“I’ve been divorced for what, three years now? I’m spending a lot of time with my daughter. She’s 13.

“But Leticia and I are doing some work with Harley Davidson, and we shot a commercial for them in Port Angeles, Washington.

“And we’ve been doing some tourism stuff in different parts of the country. So no, we’re just enjoying traveling together right now,” he explained.

When Leticia was asked the same question about whether an engagement is in the couple’s future, she was more vague.

“Yeah, ask Mike,” she quipped with a giggle. Adding: “No, no engagements. We’re enjoying our lives.

“We get to travel and we both are very busy people, so it works well for us. We got a thing with Harley Davidson that we’re doing later this year.”

Leticia also revealed that the couple has no plans on living together – or even in the same state – anytime soon.

“I don’t know how I’m going to be able to move down there, to be honest, but we’re only two hours away, and I need my space.

“But I don’t know. We’ll see. We’re always together,” she said when asked about continuing their long-distance relationship.

Leticia resides in Cave City, Kentucky – where she runs a successful cafe business, Ace Coffee – while Mike lives in the A-list area of Leipers Fork, Tennessee, about two hours away.

Mike and Leticia first went public with their relationship in August 2021 during a PDA-filled trip to his hometown of Le Claire, Iowa.

Though Leticia has still not appeared on American Pickers, the couple often posts together on social media.

Mike, who is currently filming the upcoming season of Pickers, also dished on an amusing moment on the Day of Reckoning set where he got some tips from his A-list co-star.

“This was such great energy on this cast. Shaun, the way he shoots, man, it’s just epic. Everybody was so awesome.

“They all took me in and they’re under their wing. In fact, Billy Zane… he noticed I was a little bit nervous, and he’s like, ‘What’s going on?’

“I told him, I don’t usually do this. He’s like, ‘What’s your line?’ I told him my line, and he goes, ‘Okay, well, here’s what you’re going to do.’ He’s like, ‘You’re going to walk in like this,’ and he goes, ‘You’re going to say it like this.’

“We’re standing in the middle of a bean field. I’m like, Oh, my gosh. I’m getting acting lessons from Billy Zane, standing in the middle of a bean field,” he said with a laugh.

Day of Reckoning will be released in theaters nationwide on March 28, 2025.
