The couple were introduced by Autumn Phillips – the wife of the Queen’s grandson Peter Phillips – and have been dating for 16 months.

Richardson popped the question on the night the pair attended Piers Morgan’s Christmas party.

“Because I knew this was going to happen, I was a little bit on edge when we got to Piers’s party,” Richardson said.
