Love Island’s Cara De La Hoyde and Nathan Massey confirm engagement two years after winning the show
Nathan proposed in the show's old villa and they plan to get wed in the UK or Portugal
LOVE Island’s Cara De La Hoyde and Nathan Massey are engaged.
The pair confirmed their engagement two years after winning the show – and Nathan proposed to her at the Love Island villa they met in.
The couple, who share six month old son Freddie-George, reveaked their news in Magazine.
Nathan said: ‘I brought [Cara] back to where we met and took her on a little treasure hunt around the villa to different places which meant something to us.
“Finally, I blindfolded her, led her to the pool and got down on one knee.’
Cara said: “This is where we met – we’ve come full circle.”
The ring is a two carat Asscher cut which Nathan shopped for in Trésor Paris in Hatton Garden.
However the pair revealed that they have differing plans for their wedding.
While Cara would like marry somewhere hot and sunny like Portugal, Nathan wants to stay in the UK.
He said: “I’d like to marry in England. We have elderly grandparents and we’d like them to be there, so we have to think about the travelling.”
Cara also opened up about her anxiety and depression and how she was overwhelmed with it after Love Island, which was one of the reasons they split up.
She said: “It got to a point where we loved each other but we just weren’t happy, and then when I fell pregnant we made that conscious decision that it’s not right to be together at the moment, but if it’s meant to be, then it will work.
