Jodie and Joseph have been together since 2016, but the 35-year-old popped the question during a romantic trip to Paris in November 2021.
Announcing the happy news on Instagram, Jodie revealed Joseph did a Ben Affleck and proposed while she taking a bubble bath.
Posting a snap of them kissing as she flashed her engagement ring under the French capital’s famous landmark the Arc de Triomphe, Jodie wrote: “I said YES!”
In his own post, Joseph - who is CEO and co-founder of online therapy platform Halen - told his followers: "I asked her she said yes."
Sharing more details of the unexpected proposal with Hello! magazine, the model added: “I thought he was bending down to have a chat with me, but he suddenly came out with it.
“I was a bit shocked. I just said, ‘Oh my goodness!’ But it couldn’t have been a more wonderful moment.
“I guess in a restaurant it would have been cliched. This was fun, private and different.”
The couple have yet to set a date for the wedding, which will be Joseph’s first, but Jodie has already had one hen do in private London members’ club Annabel’s.
When they finally do plan their big day, they have hinted they will tie the knot at a friend’s house in the West Country.
Although the pair currently live in West Sussex, where Jodie owns The Half Moon pub.
The upcoming nuptials will be the third marriage for aristocrat Jodie, who rose to fame in the Nineties alongside sister Jemma, a model turned make-up artist.
Prior to meeting Joseph she was married to internet entrepreneur Adian Butler, after getting engaged a year of knowing each other.
Sadly their marriage was short-lived and they parted ways 18 months later.
Jodie went on to marry author and former British military Commander David Blakeley, but the couple split in 2015 after just four months of marriage.
The former model and racing driver has previously voiced her concerns about marrying a younger man in case they do decide they want children together.
She said: “Having a younger man, I’m worried when he’s 43 and hasn’t got a kid and I’m 50-odd and suddenly he’s like ‘Oh, I want a baby’ – and I’m on my zimmer frame.”
Admitting she had considered IVF treatment, she told the Divorced Not Dead podcast: “I have talked about freezing my eggs, but we just haven’t done it yet.”
