Rachel Stevens: I burst into tears when Alex Bourne proposed

Strictly Come Dancing star was overwhelmed with emotion

Thursday, 20 November 2008

Rachel Stevens has revealed that she was in shock when Alex Bourne got down on one knee.

He whisked the Strictly Come Dancing star to Italy for the weekend as part of the surprise.

‘We were sat over dinner in a gorgeous restaurant overlooking this little town,’ she says.

‘We got talking about the future and then he stood up. I hadn’t had a clue until that point, but then I was like: “Oh my God.” He said lots of romantic stuff and gave me the ring.

‘I cried and went into shock. I thought you’d have some kind of intuition it was going to happen, but I didn’t.’

Former S Club & singer Rachel, 30, and Alex were forced to postpone their wedding so she could take part in the BBC1 show. But she can’t wait for their big day.

‘Hopefully we’ll get married next year,’ she tells Celebs On Sunday.

‘I want a big wedding, the whole thing, a huge celebration.’
