However, the couple chose to keep video clips of the heartwarming moment private until they concided with Olly’s new album, aptly named ‘Marry Me.’

The engagement post has racked up over 122,000 likes on Instagram, with fans given a glimpse into the never-before-seen look of shock on Amelia’s face when Olly got down on one knee.

The video also includes a montage of loved-up clips from their relationship.

The couple are seen kneeling down, so Amelia’s family can take photos as they pose with a backdrop of the hills and the sea on the south coast.

Olly stays kneeling on one knee as Amelia stands up, before pulling out a stunning emerald-cut diamond engagement ring from his pocket.

He captioned the video: “A Special video for a Special album!! MARRY ME OUT NOW!!”

Olly’s comments were quickly flooded with congratulatory messages from his followers and celebrity friends.

Reality TV star, Vicky Pattison commented: “You two are everything,” and Irish pop duo, Jedward, commented: “Adorable.”

Whilst one fan wrote: "Loooove this. Such a cute couple." Most of the comments section quickly became a thread of thousands of red love hearts, as fans sent their we wishes to the couple.

Olly initially met bodybuilder and fitness model Amelia at an Essex gym in 2019. The singer previously admitted that for their first few dates, he remained "very non-committal." This aloof-ness led to the couple splitting up briefly, before Olly realised that they could be the real deal.

Olly spoke to The Mirror, about the “bad-place” he was in when he split with Amelia, saying: “I was eating f**king everything - I’d be like, ‘What’s that? Percy Pigs. Bang. Jaffa Cakes, ham sandwich, Chinese. Bang. Anything in my hand, gone. I got big!”

The pair eventually reunited, Olly quit drinking and began following a diet and training plan designed by Amelia. Since then, she has supported him through some of the most challenging times in his life, including the death of his close friend, Caroline Flack in 2020.

The couple were on a walk with Amelia’s family when he chose to propose without anyone knowing his plans. The singer aimed to keep the moment “private” as much of his life is shared publicly.

Olly said: “I knew after six months of being with Amelia, genuinely, this is it. I thought at the time, ‘I can’t propose now, it’s too soon, she’ll run a mile!’”

The ‘I Hate You When You’re Drunk’ singer, appears to have proposed with a large emerald-cut diamond on a pave band, a ring which experts estimate is worth around a staggering £80,000.
