Rory McPhee, who owns his own hair salon, is said to have popped the question to the singer just days ago, with her saying “yes” instantly and agreeing to get hitched.
The precious four word question was reportedly posed to Mel at a lavish country hotel in Berks, before she was apparently wooed with a £100,000 diamond engagement ring.
Rory’s lavish gesture left Mel feeling “so happy” with a source telling the publication that Mel “burst into tears” when her beau got down on one knee.
The paper also report that Mel said “yes” in an instant but was filled with emotion at the same time.

Mel divorced Stephen Belafonte (real name Stansbury) in 2018 after enduring a “reign of terror” for a decade throughout the marriage.
The singer told in her book how she was isolated from her family and her ex-husband’s behaviour made her lose her self-esteem.
Things reached breaking point around the time Mel was a judge on The X Factor in 2014.
In November 2018 Mel became a patron of the domestic violence survivors’ charity – Women’s Aid.
And earlier this year in May (2022), she was made an MBE by Prince William, with the singer dedicating the honour to “all the other women” dealing with domestic abuse.
