Last night Emma Bunton announced that she and long term love, former boy band star Jade Jones, are engaged. The former Spice Girl revealed the news live on ice skating show Dancing On Ice where Bunton is a member of the judging panel.
Bunton announced the happy news to her co-stars during the commercial break, which host Philip Schofield then announced live on TV. The former pop star, who is also a fan of celeb favourite Twitter where she announced her second pregnancy in November, then took the micro-blogging site again to confirm the engagement news to her fans. The singer posted a pic of her new bling, adding 'Yahooooo I'm Engaged! Love you Jade! I'm a very happy lady!!'
The ice skating judge and Capital FM radio DJ has been with Jones for eleven years and it is rumoured that Jones, who is training to be a chef, proposed to his pop star baby-momma last Friday, when Bunton celebrated her 35th birthday. The ring is thought to be a 1.15 carat emerald cut diamond with two small baguettes either side. Sources close to the couple expect them to wed this summer after the new baby is born.
