‘A thousand times yes! I still can’t believe it, the most magical start to the new year! I can’t wait to spend all my years with you ❤️,’ she captioned the snap.

Stuart shared the same snap, captioning this: ‘The best way to start 2021 @mollieking!’

The proposal comes as Stuart is due to jet off to Sri Lanka to play for England, which Mollie admitted made her feel ‘anxious and uncertain’.

She had only just expressed this a few hours prior to Stuart popping the question, taking to Instagram to share her goals for the coming month.

The Radio 1 presenter praised her ‘modest’ boyfriend last month when he was nominated for the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year prize.

Paying tribute to the talented sportsman in a video screened at the socially-distanced ceremony, Mollie admitted she ‘had no idea how good he was at his job’.  

She said: ‘He was just so sweet and modest. I’d ask him about what he does and not one part of him was bragging – so much so that I actually had no idea how good he was at his job.’
