The footballer popped the question during a family trip to Disneyland Paris in 2018 and announced the happy news on Instagram by sharing a photo of himself down on one knee with the iconic castle in the background.
He held open a ring box in front of Helen, who was smiling and had one hand raised to her face in shock, and he added the caption: "She said YES!"

Helen shared a close-up photo of her oval diamond engagement ring complete with a sparkling pave band after she suffered a mishap with it in 2020. "Finally got my ring back… after the band broke," she admitted, but she chose not to sport the sentimental accessory for the National Television Awards in early October.

This comes after she admitted she had put their wedding plans on hold on several occasions. They had hoped to tie the knot in 2020 but rearranged it following the outbreak of the coronavirus and her sister's wedding.
She told New! Magazine: "We've been together for so long now that we're being lazy about wedding planning."
