Aston and dancer Sarah Lou, 34, have been together since meeting on a JLS tour back in 2012.

They share newborn son, Grayson Jax, who was born on 30 January.

The couple got engaged in December but this is the first glimpse we’ve had of the full proposal.

It comes the day after the former X Factor finalist celebrated his birthday.

His fiancée posted an emotional tribute to her partner on Instagram, beside a montage of pics.
