Former Coronation Street beauty Kym Marsh is “ecstatic” and “beyond thrilled” as she took to Instagram to announce sweet family news.
Kym took to Instagram to share a sweet snap of her eldest son David Cunliffe, and his partner Courtney Leach as the couple revealed their engagement.
Emotional and ecstatic, Kym shared the photo and penned: “So…. last night…. this happened!!!
“My wonderful son asked his beautiful girlfriend to marry him…. and she said YES!!!!
“I cannot begin to put into words how ecstatic I am!! To be in their company as a couple is to truly be in the presence of love!”
She said: “Anyone that knows us know how protective I am of my children and I ALWAYS thought I would not like any of David’s girlfriends hahah! How wrong I was.
“This girl is an absolute diamond, she’s kind and compassionate, beautiful inside and out and loves my son with everything she has! I couldn’t have wished for anyone better for him and I am super excited to be gaining a daughter!”
She continued: “Equally Courtney is getting one hell of a guy. I am so proud of the man that he is, he is a beautiful human and deserves the very best.”
“Magical and happy times for our family right now,” Kym concluded the post.
The Corrie star’s son David popped the question to his now-fiancé on her 24th birthday as the pair enjoyed a lavish break and meal out in London together at lavish location, Mala.
Courtney even took to Instagram to share the news, with her future mother-in-law leaving a sweet comment below.
The 24-year-old wrote: “The easiest yes I have ever said. Cloud nine really doesn’t cover it! I don’t ever want this feeling to end!
“What an amazing birthday! I love you with all of my heart and more @cunliffe890.”
To which Kym said: “I am beyond thrilled!!! I love you both with all my heart. I cannot wait to see what your future has in store! And I gain a daughter!!! Yay!! I love you both so much! Huge congratulations.”
The news of wedding bells comes just one month after wedding bells were sounding loudly for Kym.
Kym got wed to her long-term boyfriend Scott Ratcliff at the Royal Memorial Chapel at Sandhurst in mid-October.
Famous faces like Carol Vorderman attended the event, but masses of family members were in attendance too – including Kym’s dad David, who has incurable prostate cancer.
The former Hear’Say singer had previously revealed that it was a dream of hers for her dad to walk her down the aisle and give her away.
The joyous news of the couple’s romantic ceremony and nuptials was confirmed by OK! magazine as it happened last month, followed by a stunning magazine shoot and spread.
