Dani Dyer has sent her 3.2 million Instagram followers into a spin by posting a sweet engagement announcement on her Instagram stories, writing: "I said YES! My soulmate," over a sparkling snap of her hands bearing an engagement ring! She also shared the snap on Twitter, simply writing: "I can't believe it," with a shocked emoji.
