Myleene Klass and Simon Motson exclusively shared their happy engagement news with HELLO! magazine and now Myleene has taken to social media to show exactly how thrilled her family is about it.

In an exclusive video with HELLO! magazine, Myleene revealed her incredible 9-carat diamond ring from 77 Diamonds. But when Simon proposed, he used a promise ring so that him and Myleene could select a suitable band together. It was this very promise ring that gave away their secret to their closest family members.

She included a heartfelt caption which reads: "I met Sim 5 years ago. My children were 4 and 7, like his. We had been through pretty much identical scenarios. What we didn’t know was that we would go on to blend/mend our families and have our own baby, our ‘glue’. Sim gave me a promise ring when he proposed so we could design our engagement ring together... it was this gold ring that Hero spotted."

"We were having dinner and Sim quickly put his phone on record to catch them hearing the news. That’s why it’s a bit of a wonky shot, but it also our absolute truth. He captured it perfectly. To all you blended, steps, patchwork, bonus and insta families. It’s not easy."

Simon proposed in their garden shed on the fifth anniversary of their first date. In a romantic gesture, he transformed the shed into a replica of the bar in which they first met.

"I was absolutely blown away," says Myleene. “"He even replicated the dinner we had – burger and fries, followed by cherry pie.”
