A very happy Trisha Goddard has flashed her new ring after announcing a surprise engagement on social media.

The presenter is preparing to marry for the fourth time, and told her followers she couldn’t believe it when her boyfriend proposed to her during a New Year walk.

The 64-year-old has kept details of her relationship secretive until now, but revealed she has known her partner for four years and showed off her ring in a new video.

The pair have been living together in Connecticut since March last year, but Trisha has never revealed his identity. Now, they’re taking their relationship to the next level.

Describing the moment her partner proposed, Trisha wrote: ‘So mid-hike, I thought #boo was breaking out the usual snack of almonds or mandarins or bottles of water…

‘Ummm… Man broke out #jewelz, It g’wan be Mrs @boo well soon… Been together 4 years… He makes me laugh, looks after me, is a kid with me…’
