Romance is in the air for the Katherines of the celebrity world. Following Kate Middleton's engagement to Prince William and Kate Moss' proposal from Jamie Hince comes the news that Katherine Jenkins is also planning a wedding. Her boyfriend of three years Gethin Jones asked for her hand in marriage during a romantic beach holiday at a luxury resort in Mexico last month.

Former Blue Peter presenter Gethin reportedly presented his 30-year-old love with a ring from Bond Street jewellers Goode and Son. Speculation had been mounting that marriage wasn't far off since the couple moved into a £4.7 million home in London last summer. The pair began dating in 2007 when Gethin was a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing and Katherine made a guest appearance on the show. This weekend the delighted diva told fans: "Geth and I are engaged. "He popped the question at the end of an amazing holiday on the coast of Mexico and of course I said yes. "We haven't set a date yet but it will be sometime next year".

And there's can only be one possible location for the Neath lass and her 32-year-old fiancé to tie the knot. "Wales is an obvious choice for their wedding," a source close to the couple told the South Wales Echo. "It's where they both come from and Katherine has always said that she would go home to be married. "They are both very happy and in love and their family and friends are equally delighted for them. "They are such a well-suited couple – a perfect match".
