Congratulations are in order for former Welsh Love Island star Callum Macleod after he revealed that his long-time girlfriend, Jade, has become his fiancée. The aircraft engineer appeared on the reality television show to find love on season five in 2019, although his time in the villa was short-lived as he became the first Islander of the series to be dumped after failing to find a romantic connection.
Though it couldn't have been a better result for the 32-year-old who met his now wife-to-be Jade Olivia soon after on the outside. Sharing the news to Instagram, Callum posted a video which documented the romantic proposal that saw him popping the question during a beautiful sunrise with a stunning view of the coastline.

Writing: "WE’RE GETTING MARRIED!!! Last week's sunrise was a special one… 08.10.22", his now fiancée is seen in the video preparing for, what she thinks is, a photo of the couple in front of the sunrise - but little did she know the events soon to unfold..
And it seems Jade was totally taken aback as, the moment he pulls the ring out of his jacket, she is seen to cover her mouth in glee and, of course, said a euphoric yes. After he is given the answer, Callum is seen picking Jade up and hugging her tight before running back to the camera and jumping for joy - understandably.
Celebrity pals were quick to flood Callum's comments section with wishes of congratulations of the excitng news. Fellow Love Islander Yewande Biala wrote: "Congratulations", while Dr Zoe Williams said: "Ahhhhhhhhh congratulations."
Close friend and Welsh rugby star Josh Navidi too commented on the news, writing: "Amazing" alongside Josh Turnbull who said: "Congratulations bud".
This news comes soon after that of fellow Love Islanders Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury, who recently announced the joyful news that they were expecting their first baby together.
