Engagements and proposals are, without a doubt, an exciting thing. From the planning that goes into them, to the inevitable first Instagram post revealing the news to family and friends, they’re kind of a big deal.

So it’s only natural to assume that Laura Byrne – who won Matty J’s heart on last year’s season of the reality dating show – was quite surprised when she learned that not only was she set to marry her beau, but that a magazine had received the ‘scoop’ before she did.

Laura shared an image of the latest cover of OK! Magazine on her Instagram story, which boasted the headline, “Matty J confirms: Laura and I are getting married”.
The only problem of course, is that Matty J is yet to actually propose.
