‘Josh picked up the ring in Sydney last week and then surprised her by popping the question,’ the insider said.
The medical supply executive reportedly presented Sophie with an oval solitaire diamond ring with a hidden halo, worth around $25,000.

Sophie has been dropping hints over the past few months that she wants to wed.
On their second anniversary back in June, the former Bardot singer posted several photos of the pair together to Instagram, alongside the caption: ‘I love you so much and you’re my best friend in the world. I can’t wait to marry you (hint hint)’.
However, at the time, the cheeky plea had not translated to a ring.

The Masked Signer star told The Daily Telegraph in August: ‘He just keeps laughing. I’m like, ‘Can you get the message? I’m doing it publicly’.’
The former Love Island host added that it could not be more obvious what her intentions for her beloved are.
‘I cannot make more of a hint without buying the ring!’ she told the paper.

Sophie went on to reveal she would not ask Joshua herself as she fears being turned down.
‘I want him to do it. I’m not traditional or anything. But what if he says no? It’s pretty clear what I’ll say,’ she told the publication.
Sophie has been smitten with Joshua since they first met over two years ago, and they have been living at Sophie’s luxurious $2.3million NSW Central Coast home.
They met on board an international flight in 2018 before he wined and dined her at LA celebrity hotspot Catch – a favourite with the likes of Kylie Jenner and David Beckham.
