Ant McPartlin, 48, is currently spending time away from his home with Anne-Marie Corbett while he films I'm A Celebrity in Australia, but his return for Christmas is set to be very special.
The TV host, who regularly presents with Declan Donnelly, will not only be embracing the cold weather, Christmas decorations and romantic atmosphere that the festive season brings, but he'll also be reminiscing about his proposal to his wife.

"It was a lovely way to end the year," he told Digital Spy magazine. "I’m a romantic at heart. You know, there were flowers, and afternoon tea in front of the Christmas tree. Lovely. It was lovely," he added, and his wife was later spotted wearing a four-carat diamond ring estimated to be worth £200,000.

"Ant and Amzie are delighted to announce their engagement. The proposal took place on Christmas Eve at home in a very romantic setting," it read.
With December quickly approaching, Ant and Anne-Marie will likely be decorating their £6 million Wimbledon home, which they purchased after Ant sold his Chiswick property down the road from Dec. Once their Christmas tree is up, it offers the couple the perfect opportunity to recreate their special engagement behind closed doors over the festive period.
Ant was married to his ex-wife Lisa for 11 years, while Anne-Marie is mother to two daughters from a previous relationship. The couple first started dating in April 2018 and they tied the knot at St Michael Church in Heckfield in August 2021 in front of 100 guests, including Dec, Phillip Schofield, Alesha Dixon, David Walliams, Dermot O'Leary and Christine Lampard.
