Love Island’s Hayley Hughes reveals she is engaged as she shows off huge diamond ring after romantic Dubai proposal

Love Island’s Hayley Hughes has revealed the happy news that she is engaged.

The 29-year-old, known for appearing on the dating show in 2018, shared some news with her followers on Instagram this weekend.

Hayley hasn’t shared the identity of her partner, but she and her partner have a two-year-old son named Cody. They currently live in Dubai as a family.

I was so thrilled to see Hayley announce her engagement! She shared the most beautiful post with a picture of her incredible ring, and simply wrote ’12/12 – my forever love. I love you so much.’ It’s just so sweet and clearly shows how happy she is!

Her future husband took her out for a special, fancy dinner, and the private room was beautifully decorated with white rose petals.

It was such a magical night! After the proposal, we were all watching the fireworks light up the Dubai skyline, and I just had to share a picture of my partner completely smitten with our baby. It was a perfect moment I’ll never forget.

Friends from her time on Love Island, including Liberty Poole and Rosie Williams, were among the first to offer their congratulations.

Last August Hayley confirmed she’d welcomed her first child with her mystery boyfriend.

She shared adorable first snaps of her newborn son on Instagram, and soon after revealed his name.

Along with the photos, she shared a heartfelt message: ‘You’re more amazing than we ever dreamed, sweet boy. I can’t believe we get to love you forever. Our little family is complete!’

Georgia Harrison shared her excitement and congratulations, saying she was incredibly happy and proud for the recipient.

That April, Hayley took to Instagram to announce she was expecting her first child.

The celebrity shared adorable photos documenting her pregnancy with her unnamed partner.

I was so thrilled to see she shared a video of her baby scan! She announced the wonderful news that she’s expecting in September, and even posted a picture of her positive pregnancy test. It’s just the sweetest thing!

She finished the heartwarming slideshow with a simple, touching message: ‘You’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me.’

Hayley shared with her 752,000 followers that she and her partner – who she’s kept private – are overjoyed with their new baby, calling him or her their ‘baby bear.’

She shared a heartfelt message with a photo, writing: ‘This is a dream come true! Our sweet little one, you’re everything we’ve ever wished for…’

Friends and followers quickly sent congratulations in the comments, including a message from Kaz Crossley that simply read, ‘Congratulations baby.’

Meanwhile, former Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison said: ‘Congratulations gorgeous girl.’

Another pal, social media star Saffron Barker, wrote: ‘Aw congratulations gorgeous.’

Hayley has kept her boyfriend out of the public eye, never revealing his name or face in pictures.

When she announced her pregnancy on Instagram, she only showed the back of her partner’s head in the photo, keeping his identity a secret.

The reality TV star spent two weeks on Love Island, where she first connected with Eyal Booker before later pairing up with Charlie Frederick.

However, her time in the villa was short-lived and she was given her marching orders after 13 days.

After appearing on Love Island, she dated DJ Tom Zanetti for seven months before their relationship ended.
