They may have only been dating for 6 months, but Geordie Shore’s Marnie Simpson and reality star boyfriend Ricky Rayment are ready to make the ultimate commitment.
According to the Mirror, the pair are engaged to be married!
Friends of the young couple claim that Ricky, 24, popped the question two weeks ago and Marnie, 22, “immediately said yes”.
Ricky dated co-star Jess Wright before meeting Marnie at the NTA’s earlier this year, but it seems he has long moved on from his TOWIE ex.
One of Ricky’s friends said: “It might come across that things are moving a little too quickly...but Ricky believes he's met the girl of his dreams. Jess is a distant memory.”
In her exclusive Closer Online column earlier this year, Marnie said: “I just know that I am going to be with my Essex boy forever. It just feels right.”
Ricky left The Only Way Is Essex earlier this year, but is reportedly set to make a brief appearance on the latest series of Geordie Shore.
The couple allegedly have other TV projects in the pipeline off the back of their engagement.
Ricky’s ex Jess is yet to comment on the engagement news.
