He was previously married to ex-wife Alexandra for 19 years.

Sources close to the pair said last night: “Paul proposed some months ago, but they have been keeping it very quiet since then.

“It’s only in the past month that she has begun wearing her engagement ring out in public, and sharing their news with friends.

“There are no wedding plans in place yet.”
