Verity made the first post to her Instagram story, flashing her round engagement ring to the camera as she laughed.
Cameron had his arms wrapped around her while kissing her cheek, and the date of June 27 was written underneath the picture.
The second snap showed the happy couple kissing in a field, accompanied by the words: “Get to spend the rest of my life with the love of my life!”
Verity continued to gush while flashing the ring in the streets, describing the proposal as “the most perfect, romantic and thoughtful proposal that ever could have been created.”

A final snap showed a typed up letter addressed to Verity from Cameron that provided some insight into the proposal. It read: “Good morning my darling!
“Today is a very special day. A day I have been planning for over a year.
“A scavenger hunt has been laid out across London for you. Each clue you solve will lead you to another important location. Solve them all and meet me at the finish line.
“Expect the unexpected, and look out for some of my helpers along the way! Because in the words of The Beatles: ‘I get by with a little help from my friends.’
“Ps. I know you may be eager to skip straight to the end, but I have designed what I hope will be the best day of your life.
“So please, take your time and enjoy every minute of it, I’m not going anywhere! I love you xxx”
Verity also made a post to her Instagram grid that saw her scooped up in Cameron’s arms while going in for a smooch.
The star captioned the picture with: “I’m going to marry the love of my life.”
Verity and Cameron have kept their relationship very private, so it’s unknown when they first started dating.
However, they were first linked in public during 2024 when Cameron praised Verity online, saying how proud he was of her.
Myleene Klass has revealed she has turned down a 25th anniversary Hear’Say reunionCredit: ITVMyleene rose to fame in the noughties band alongside Kym Marsh, Danny Foster, Suzanne Shaw, and Noel SullivanCredit: News Group Newspapers Ltd
This year marks 25 years since they were formed on Popstars, with Kym previously hinting they would do a reunion performance to mark the milestoneCredit: GettyMyleene said she isn’t ‘in a position’ to say yet to joining them, but will be there to support a reunion from the sidelines
“It’s not something I can commit to right at this moment. But you go and, you know, I’ll be front row – singing Pure And Simple!”
Myleene then admitted she wasn’t sure it was possible to recapture the magic of the band when it was first formed.
She said: “Generally speaking, I think it’s very hard to replicate the feeling of the first time.”
Hear’Say were put together on the talent show Popstars and in March 2001, their single Pure And Simple became, at the time, the fastest-selling debut single in the UK.
In December, Kym said of a reunion: “I always laugh and say ‘never say never’ about a Hear’Say reunion.
“We might pop up somewhere, just for a one-off performance down the line, to surprise everyone.”
Myleene was previously asked to take part in a Hear’Say reunion, revealing in 2021 that she had turned it down.
She said at the time: “There was definitely talk last year. Suzie came to my house just to have the discussion. I said, ‘look at the minute, I have so much on’.”
FRANKIE Bridge has revealed she’s been diagnosed with ADHD after her Loose Women co-star Denise Welch spotted the symptoms and urged her to get tested.
The 37-year-old has previously been open about her battle with depression and anxiety and now she believes she’s found the “last missing piece” with her attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder diagnosis.

Speaking on her latest YouTube vlog, the former Saturdays star told her viewers: “I found out today that I’ve got ADHD.
“Denise was like, ‘I got diagnosed with ADHD and it’s completely changed my life – my depression and my anxiety is so much better’.
She was like, ‘let me put you in touch with [a specialist]. You can just see’. I was a bit like, ‘yeah, I mean, I could be’.”
The mum-of-two continued: “I’ve been battling with [the diagnosis] all day. Part of me is like, what a relief, because it does make sense to me.
“When I went on the call, I was not sure if this was going to really resonate with me. But by the end of it, I was like, ‘f***, it really does’.
“It’s kind of reassuring. Not that it makes excuses for it, but I can hopefully try and feel less guilt because I’m such a perfectionist, and all that is part of it.”
According to the NHS, those with ADHD are significantly more likely to experience depression and anxiety.
ADHD itself can cause emotional dysregulation, making individuals more prone to intense emotions and making it harder to soothe themselves when feeling down or worried.
The I’m A Celebrity star added: “Hopefully this is the last missing piece that is going to help.
“They do say with a lot of women, we’re not diagnosed ’til we’re a lot older, and by then, you’ve already dealt with depression and anxiety for a really long time.”
Her fans flocked to the comments section on YouTube to commend her on her bravery as some related to her diagnosis.
One penned: “I recently got diagnosed with adhd too and so much makes sense now.”

Another person said: “Awww love your vids. Love your vulnerability.”
While a third added: “Thanks for another great vlog and thanks for being you.”
Denise was diagnosed with ADHD herself in January 2023 after undergoing a series of intense tests.
Incidentally, Denise went to get tested after her Loose Women co-star Nadia Sawalha received her own diagnosis and saw similar traits in her.

Frankie has previously stated that she was “anxious from the womb” and experienced physical symptoms including stomach aches, night time panic and difficulty breathing.
Her depression began to manifest significantly when she was 15, coinciding with her first brush with fame in S Club Juniors.
In 2011, at the height of her success in The Saturdays, Frankie suffered a major mental health breakdown.
She voluntarily admitted herself into a private psychiatric hospital for treatment for one month.
It’s something the ITV star has continued to deal with on daily basis but has used her platform to help other people who are experiencing the same as her.
In March last year, she told her Instagram followers: “I have finally made it down to the gym. It’s taken me the whole day to actually get here.
What is ADHD?
ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how individuals focus, regulate their impulses, and manage their energy levels.
Symptoms depend on the type; inattention causes challenges with focusing, organisation and time management, hyperactivity causes excessive energy or restlessness, and impulsivity causes a person to act without thinking or struggle to wait their turn.
People can be predominately one type or a mix of the two and symptoms are varied and unique to individuals.
While living with ADHD is challenging, people often find unique strengths within their condition, such as the ability to hyperfocus on something they find interesting, problem-solving skills and creativity.
“My depression is absolutely kicking my a**e, and I’m so over it. You know when you just feel like you do all the things you’re told you’re meant to do, and then it just still always comes back?
“I’m just so bored of myself. It is so boring. You know when you just think everyone around me must just be so bored of it as well, and I just I’m over it.”
“But I’m here,” she added. “I’m going to try and do as much as I can in the gym, because I know it will make me feel better.
“Instead of just sitting around, eating s**t, which is what I’ve been doing all day, which only makes me feel worse and I know that, so I don’t know why I do it, but here we are back in the same old place.”
Sam Thompson finally found a reason to smile again with new girlfriend Talitha Balinska after his devastating split from ex Zara McDermott.
But while the pair are certainly loved up, some members of his inner circle have told The Sun they are questioning whether Talitha may turn out to be Zara 2.0.

According to a source close to Sam, they believe his new model and DJ squeeze appears to be following too closely in his ex’s footsteps – and could secretly harbour desires to have a career as big as the former Love Island and Strictly Come Dancing beauty.
A member of Sam’s posse tells us: “Talitha seems like a nice girl but a few eyebrows have been raised by some of Sam’s pals about how easily she has slotted into his showbiz world and how comfortable she seems in the spotlight.
“They have questioned whether she is enjoying the profile boost that comes with dating a guy like Sam, because she wasn’t as well known before dating him.
They added: “These days she always seems to be invited brand trips or flogging online ads in a way she wasn’t before, so it feels like being with Sam has opened some major doors for her. You can’t necessarily blame her for taking advantage of that, but it has raised some eyebrows.”

After the ties with ex Zara severed, Sam had quite the “glow-up” and he soon captured the attention of model and DJ Talitha.
Former Made In Chelsea star Sam told how Talitha was “the one” earlier this year, but not everyone in his life is convinced.
“It feels like he has rushed head over heels into the next full-on relationship, but that’s Sam, he’s like a puppydog in love.
“Talitha could turn out to be the love of his life, but we’re his friends and we’re protective. We don’t want to see him get hurt.”
Sam first met gorgeous Talitha in 2024 on a photoshoot for Sam’s sunglasses brand Dinelli Eyewear but they didn’t begin to date until a few months after his split from Zara.
Once the couple were spotted together in October last year and Sam began mentioning her online, Talitha’s influencer career really took off.
The 24-year-old’s following grew by 900 per cent on Instagram and she started cashing in on more advertisement deals.
Not only that, Talitha has been making the most of her newfound fame, jetting off on brand trips, scooping freebies and enjoying lavish dinners.
She was spotted a few weeks ago partying on a yacht in Marbella, Spain, after being whisked away by The Couture Club.
The model has taken the place of the Love Island legend in a string of Sam’s social media ads – something he once enjoyed doing with Zara.

Our source adds: “Sam and Zara would often beg their family and friends to get involved with the funny twists they would put on their content – it looks as though history is repeating itself.
” A few of us have pointed out that Talitha often appears on social media “playing the eye-rolling” girlfriend, something Zara had perfected, or the one who laughs at all his jokes.
The source said: “A few who knew Zara really well have commented that Talitha seems to basically be copying her – the way she acts on social media is very similar, playing the foil to him is the same schtick Zara used to do in his Instagram and TikTok videos.”
Sam’s posse have noticed that Talitha has also become tight with Sam’s sister Louise, who absolutely adores her.
Zara was incredibly close to Louise and the pair were often spotted together.
“Talitha seems like she’s really close with his sister Louise, just like Zara was, but they have hardly known each other for a fraction of the time,” says our insider.
“It all feels a bit too much too fast, like she is already a member of the family.
“Some of us have joked that she’ll be landing her own BBC Three documentary series next, or trying to get cast on a reality show.”
Talitha’s influence has already begun to make its mark on Sam’s home, too.
This Morning‘s Sam revealed on his podcast, Staying Relevant, that he was getting his garden redone with a huge water feature, top-notch barbecue and bougie seating area.
But when he was quizzed on the new expense by his best pal Pete Wicks, Sam admitted he was forking out because Talitha wanted him too.
The 33-year-old claimed he’d rather have spent the cash on a lavish break away but his girlfriend felt a remodelled garden would be the perfect place for them to spend time.
Documentary maker Zara, 29, previously staked her claim on the home as the exes carved their names into the kitchen wood. Sam later admitted this wasn’t his choice either.
The podcast host got the room redecorated for the second time in just a few years to wipe any trace of Zara, who has since moved on with former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson.
Talitha, who now appears to have properly moved in to Sam’s home, took to Instagram recently to admit that she was forcing him to move his clothes so she could have more wardrobe space.
Despite what some of Sam’s posse think, others say Talitha “picked Sam up at a time when he was really heartbroken,” and “put a smile back on his face again.”
According to a source close to Talitha , the couple are really happy and they don’t understand why some people are trying to “tear her down.”
Her pal continues: “Talitha is actually quite introverted and not in this for the fame.
“She already had an influencer profile before getting together with Sam, so anything she gets offered now comes from her already being in this world.
“Maybe some brands have reached out to her since she has been with Sam, but it’s not Talitha actively seeking these things out.
“She is with Sam for the right reasons, she’s a genuine girl and it’s disappointed for anyone to suggest she wants to copy Zara.
“She’s aware of Sam’s exes, but everyone has an ex and she is an ex for a reason. Talitha certainly doesn’t want to be the next Zara, because why would he even want to be with a clone of his former flame?
“It’s just silly – a case of someone trying to pit women against women. Sam and Talitha are happy, so anyone who thinks otherwise is not a real friend of either of them.”
The Sun has reached out to reps for Sam and Talitha for comment.

But it looks like the new romance is over as she took to TikTok to share a relationship update.
Kate told her followers: “I got broken up with, I got dumped you guys.
“I’ve been super MIA online here about my updated dating situation going on, that is because I recently met someone.
“I feel like things were moving super fast kind of, if you know me, you know I have a tendency of moving fast.
“Let’s just name this guy Joe. Joe was really sweet and I feel like he was kind of like a lot of things I wanted in a guy.
“He’s really super low-key, he doesn’t have any social media which I actually really liked. I met his family, he took me on a trip, things were going really well, really quick.
“I f****d up. Dating after losing somebody that you genuinely thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with is really tough because I physically look for Liam in every single guy that I meet,” she bravely admitted.
“If they don’t hit all the check marks, I tend to either back away or almost resent this person and it’s so crazy.
She previously shared a video that said “when you know you know”Credit: TikTokA man was seen sweeping her off her feetCredit: TikTok
“There were certain times where I would get so angry with this guy because I physically would be like, ‘oh Liam would do this so why aren’t you doing this?’
“Or he would do something and I would be like, ‘Liam would never do that, why are you doing that?’
“He texted me yesterday and we should go our separate ways because it’s just too much and I understand,” Kate explained.
“I feel sad because I don’t like losing people and I feel like especially in the beginning of a situationship, it’s so fun and you’re so excited to see where it goes.”
Her TikTok followers rallied around her in the comments section and offered her support as she continues to live without Liam.
One person wrote: “The whole point of the dating journey after losing someone is to learn and understand your feelings.
“You won’t always compare every guy to Liam, and you’re learning that as you go along.”
Another social media user penned: “I didn’t know you were actually dating someone, I’m so sorry you got broken up with though, you will find the one someday!”

Somebody else said: “Liam would be proud of you for putting yourself out there again. I’m sure all he wanted was for you to be loved the right way and someone will come along who will do that again.”
While a fourth added: “Your heart isn’t ready yet. Don’t blame yourself. He wasn’t the one.”
Earlier this month, Kate shared a video of herself walking into a lavish event while donning a blue silk gown.
A handsome man in a suit walked beside her and put his arm around her before lifting her up and into his arms.
Twirling her around, the man held on tightly to Kate as she beamed from ear to ear.
“I love having a crush,” she penned in the caption of the post.
Meanwhile, over the top of the video, Kate wrote: “When you know you know.”
The content creator was in a relationship with the One Direction star before his tragic death at the age of 31 in October 2024.
They were together for two years and first met in South Carolina in the Autumn of 2022.
The pair were holidaying together two days before Liam’s fatal fall at a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Perrie has lifted the lid on the state of her friendship with JesyCredit: YouTubeJesy quit Little Mix in 2020 and made some bold claims about that time in a recent documentaryCredit: Daniele Venturelli/WireImage
Now Perrie, 32, has shared her support for her former friend, after Jesy quit Little Mix in 2020 and sparked a bitter fall-out among the girls.
Appearing on Jamie Laing’s Great Company podcast, she said: “I mean, when I think everything we’ve been through as a group, and even though it ended in ways that I wouldn’t have wanted it to, and we’re not that close anymore and we’re not in each other’s lives, I still feel everything that the girls feel and I think they’re the same.
“We’ll always have that weird connection. And seeing Jesy go through that, it broke me.
“Because you wouldn’t wish that on anyone. It’s literally wild. And as much as we’ve got our issues and, you know, I think I don’t want to see her go through that.

“I don’t want to see her hurt and I don’t want to see any of that. It’s heartbreaking.”
In her recent documentary Life After Little Mix, Jesy made some bold claims about Perrie, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock.
“She [one of the girls] was like, ‘Can I go now?’”
Fighting back tears, Jesy added: “That made me feel really alone. I felt like there was no point. That no one cared.”
And in her chat with Jamie, Perrie had her say. When he asked if she envisioned repairing her friendship with Jesy, she said: “If I’m being completely transparent, part of me wanted to until the documentary. And then part of me withdrew again.
“I’m not a horrible person. I haven’t got a bad one in my body, but I can cut you off.
“There’s personal things, there’s public things, there’s everything. I don’t have the capacity for somebody like that in my life anymore. And that might make me sound like a bitch, but I just don’t have the energy for it.
“And as much as I will always love her, I don’t think I can hack that energy in my space.”
