Richard and Ingrid announced their engagement in May after two years of dating.

They met on Richard’s game show House Of Games, in which four celebrities compete with each other in a series of daily challenges.

Richard previously told Hello! “Ingrid came on House of Games. I knew who she was through social media.

“We’d never met – I had never met her. I had a little twinkle in my eye, I’ll admit that,” he said.

Richard then added: “She came on, we filmed that day together. Our first date is completely on camera. After filming, I was thinking, how can I ask her for a drink, this is difficult.”
