WHEN it comes to popping the question, you can always rely on celebrities to pull out all the stops.
And Joe Swash, 38, blew fans away this Christmas when he left his partner Stacey Solomon, 31, in tears with a very romantic proposal.
The Loose Women star revealed her long-time boyfriend got down on one knee with a huge diamond ring on a walk in the woods – with her two sons Leighton, eight, Zachary, 12, and their child Rex, one, with them.
Stacey told fans: "Today we went for a walk in the woods… Like we always do. But it didn't look the same – actually full-on blubbering as I write this…
"And Joe with our boys, in my favourite place in the world… He asked me to marry him."
While Joe was likely feeling very chuffed with himself following Stacey's tearful reaction, he joins several more stars who have gone above and beyond to surprise their future spouses.
