Maeva and James got engaged in Rome
Fans of the Bafta-winning reality show have been gripped by the couple's on-off relationship, with feisty Maeva, 29, proposing to James – and him saying no – during the current series.
But HELLO! can reveal that he had actually been planning the proposal for the past year – and he also picked out his fiancée’s dream diamond ring.
"It took me some time to really realise how beautiful the ring was," she tells us. "If I had picked it myself, it would be exactly this one."
The couple have been together for three years
Speaking to HELLO! about Maeva's proposal, she told us: "I think deep down it was a relief. I was glad he said no, because it wasn't the right thing to do. Sometimes I rush into things."
Explaining why he said no, James tells us: "It just goes against everything about my character and who I think I am - I do have that bit of traditionalism in me. I want to be the man and I wanted to make it a special moment for her."
