He had decided to pop the question by a waterfall on a trip to the Lake District - but he didn't get down on one knee due to "health and safety reasons".

Chris added: "I was also worried about dropping the ring in the water because my hand was shaking."

Rowena, 33, said that the ring "blew her away" but that she soon wanted to "get off this ledge".

She revealed: "Every anniversary I was always hoping I’d get a ring."

Despite the happy news for Chris, his character Jai has had a tough last few months.

Jai's girlfriend Holly Barton died after suffering from a shock drug overdose in September.

Viewers were distraught about Holly, who seemed to have everything going for her including a blossoming relationship with fellow recovering addict Jai and a new job.
