Former Gladiator David and 34-year-old model Kelly met at a New Year’s Party last year and his proposal is said to have come as a surprise to her.
A source told a UK newspaper: “It’s still a closely guarded secret and came to Kelly as a massive shock.
“But she is at that time in her life now where she wants to make a commitment and she has fallen head over heels for David.”
Kelly finished their short romance earlier this year, apparently claiming that David is ‘fame hungry’ and only using her to boost his own profile.
“Kelly thinks David has been using her,” a source said at the time. “She felt hurt and humiliated when she realised he was more interested in fame than her.
“He was desperate to be in the papers and she kicked him out as soon as she realised he was alerting the photographers to their whereabouts.”
However, David insisted the rumours weren’t true, saying: “Media attention isn’t a new thing. I’ve been doing a lot of modelling work in America myself, people know me out there.”
If the news is true, we can’t blame Kelly for wanting to settle down after her turbulent love life. While she hasn’t confirmed the news herself, she did post a tweet on Thursday hinting something had happened.
She wrote: “International Day of Happiness, it certainly is.”
