Viewers of Saturday Night Takeaway were left emotional tonight as a string of couples got engaged.
To mark the Leap Year, a number of women popped the question to their partners live on the programme.
Host Ant McPartlin told viewers: “A Leap Year is the day when women propose to men. Come on girls, do what you want!”

A woman called Becky revealed she had been secretly proposing to her boyfriend Kris since December.

Sat in the audience, Becky asked Kris if we wanted to get married and he said yes!
Meanwhile, Natalie and Stephen have been together for two years and they’re expecting a baby in April.
