Ex TOWIE star Tom Pearce is engaged to beautician girlfriend after Bali proposal

Former TOWIE star Tom Pearce has announced he is engaged to his beautician girlfriend.

The reality star, 33, shared snaps of the moment he proposed to his stunning partner Rebecca Walker during dinner at the Four Seasons resort in Bali on Instagram on Thursday.

Tom had pulled out all the stops for Rebecca, treating her to a romantic alfresco meal in the moonlight with their table surrounded by rose petals in the shape of a love heart.

The moment he got down on one knee was even captured, with the beautician throwing her head back in disbelief as he presented her a huge diamond ring - which she later showed off in another snap.

His reality star pals soon took to the comment section to congratulate them.

Shelby Tribble wrote: "Congratulations", while Chloe Sims added: "Congrats Tom".

Pixie Lott commented: "Wow Tommy!!!! Amazing news congrats to you both these pics r beautiful!!" (sic).

The couple went public with their relationship on Instagram back in 2019 and have shared a string a loved-up snaps in the years that have followed.

During his days on TOWIE, the city banker was quite a Lothario having romances with co-stars including Grace Andrews, Lucy Mecklenburgh, Lauren Pope, Abi Clarke and Lauren Goodger - to name a few.

He also dated Made In Chelsea star Emily Blackwell in 2018.

After his exit in 2015 after his three-year stint on the show, Tom spoke about why it was the right time to leave and denied claims he was dropped from the cast.

Tom took to Twitter to say: "Contrary to some articles in the press this morning I was not dropped from Xmas special, I quit to concentrate on my job."

The blue-eyed hunk has a first-class degree in economics and was holding a job down in London, but is now based in Dubai.

The year of his exit he had major back surgery.

At the time Tom explained that he began getting back ache and went to see a surgeon who diagnosed him with kyphosis - curvature of the spine.

"He told me I needed to have it operated on or later in life I might have a hunchback," he said.

"They broke my back in 15 places and I have two titanium rods either side of my spine.

"It was a massive op - I was in hospital for over a week and in intensive care for two days.

Tom added: "The surgeon told me there was a one to two per cent chance of something going wrong, which I know sounds really low, but when it's your back being operated on it's scary.

"If something had gone wrong I could've ended up in a wheelchair."
