Ollie told fans to pick up next week’s issue of Hello! Magazine for the full story on their engagement.
The couple quietly began dating earlier this year, with Ollie keeping the romance away from the limelight.
It meant the engagement came as a surprise to many fans who had no idea Ollie had a boyfriend, let alone now a fiance!

Ollie announced the news by sharing a screenshot to Instagram showing the couple’s engagement announcement in The Times newspaper.
It read: “Mr O.J.M. Locke and Mr G.P. Locke. The engagement is announced between Oliver, son of Sarah and John Locke of Southhampton, and Gareth, son of Margaret and David Locke of Suffolk.”
Ollie added a caption saying: “I have known him for 10 years, and at many of my most important life moments he was in the background.
“Earlier this year we realised that what we had both been looking for was standing in front of us all along, the greatest hint was probably that we already have the same surname!”
Ollie continued: “I have never been happier and can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with someone who makes me smile like this every day!
“On Sunday I said yes Xx.”
Ollie tagged in Gareth to the Instagram post, marking the first time he’d identified his partner on social media.
He’d previously posted a handful of photos of himself and Gareth, but always kept Gareth’s face obscured from the camera and his identity concealed.
Gareth, meanwhile, shared his own post to Instagram showing the couple together with the caption: “Feeling blessed he said yes! Love you.”
Fans were absolutely over the moon for the couple!
One wrote: “This is brilliant news! Glad to see you so deliriously happy Ollie! No doubt you 100% deserve it! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness.”
Another said: “I’m so glad you got your happy ending you deserve it.”
A third added: “Congratulations! You have found what we all search for and what we are lucky to find when we do! Makes my heart happy for you!”
Other fans admitted they hadn’t even realised Ollie had a boyfriend, let alone a fiancé.
One fan commented the news was “unexpected” but amazing, while many more joked at least Ollie and Gareth wouldn’t have to worry about changing their surnames after marriage!
