Mollie King reveals where Stuart Broad proposed as she gushes it has always been a ‘favourite’ spot

They announced their engagement on New Year’s Day.

And Mollie King has now revealed the place where her new fiancé Stuart Broad, 34, proposed, gushing that it’s always been one of her ‘favourite spots’.

The singer, 33, took to Instagram on Wednesday to post a throwback snap from the stunning green location which is in Richmond.

She penned: ‘Came across this old post today and it made me smile. This is the spot where @stuardbroad proposed. As I said in the caption at the time, it’s always been one of my favourite places and it’s even more special now.’ 

Mollie had originally shared the stunning snap of herself out on a sun-soaked dog walk back in March, revealing she’s loved the location since childhood.

The blonde beauty looked sensational in the image as she turned towards the camera and rocked a chic suede jacket and jeans as well as some brown boots. 

At the time she captioned the picture: ‘This used to be one of my favourite walks with my sisters when I was younger. We called it Children’s World. So lovely being back here today, still feels just as special.’

Mollie and Stuart announced their engagement news on New Year’s Day, sharing a snap of the pair kissing while on a wintry countryside walk.

Wrapped up against the chill, Mollie embraced the cricketer flashing her diamond engagement ring. 

‘A thousand times yes! I still can’t believe it, the most magical start to the new year! I can’t wait to spend all my years with you ❤️,’ she captioned the snap.

Stuart shared the same snap, captioning this: ‘The best way to start 2021 @mollieking!’

The proposal came as Stuart prepared to jet off to Sri Lanka to play for England, which Mollie admitted made her feel ‘anxious and uncertain’.

She had only just expressed this a few hours prior to Stuart popping the question, taking to Instagram to share her goals for the coming month.

Mollie wrote: ‘So it’s 2021! If you’re anything like me you might be going into this year feeling a bit anxious and uncertain. I often get the January blues and this year is going to be especially tough with everything that’s going on.

‘@stuartbroad also goes away tomorrow with cricket which is always a mix of feeling excited for him but knowing I’m going to miss him so much.’

Mollie and Stuart were first linked in March 2018, but briefly split five months later in August 2018.

The couple were spotted together again in February 2019, and confirmed they had reunited the following month.  

The Radio 1 presenter praised her ‘modest’ boyfriend last month when he was nominated for the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year prize.

Paying tribute to the talented sportsman in a video screened at the socially-distanced ceremony, Mollie admitted she ‘had no idea how good he was at his job’.  

She said: ‘He was just so sweet and modest. I’d ask him about what he does and not one part of him was bragging – so much so that I actually had no idea how good he was at his job.’

Mollie has had a number of high profile romances over the years, since she shot to fame with The Saturdays in 2008.

Most notably was her relationship with model David Gandy. She also dated Andy Brown, of the band Lawson, as well as record producer Jordan Omley.

She was linked to her Strictly Come Dancing partner AJ Pritchard when she took part on the series in 2017. However, the TV pair insisted at the time there was no romance between them and they were just friends.

While Stuart dated lingerie model Bealey Mitchell from 2014-2017. Prior to this he dated actress Kacey Barnfield and model Laura Coleman.
