Congratulations to Sarah Hyland, who has announced her engagement to Wells Adams. The Modern Family actress revealed that her boyfriend had popped the question on Tuesday, during a beach holiday – and the photos look so romantic!

Wells got down on one knee as they enjoyed a day at the beach, with Sarah clutching a glass of rosé wine and raising her hand to her mouth as he presented her with a diamond engagement ring. "That can't eat, can't sleep, reach for the stars, over the fence, world series kind of stuff," she captioned the photos.

"With her health issues and stuff, everyone goes through things in their lives, it just so happened that when we started dating she was going through a very big thing," he told ET Online. "It's not hard to love her. She's gorgeous and beautiful and smart and talented. It was nice that I was able to help her with her issue, but there will be times when I need her help." The couple now live together in Los Angeles, after Wells relocated from his home in Nashville to be closer to his girlfriend within a year of dating.
