Kelly Brook confirms engagement

Actress and model Kelly Brook has confirmed reports she's engaged to boyfriend David Mckintosh following a whirlwind courtship.

The Piranha 3D star, who previously dated Jason Statham and was engaged to Titanic hunk Billy Zane, began dating McIntosh, a former star of British TV show Gladiators, after meeting him at a New Year's Eve (31Dec13) party - and they're already planning a wedding.

Brook appeared to hint at the engagement news on Thursday (20Mar14) in a message posted on her Twitter.com account, which read: "International Day of Happiness... it certainly is."

And now the busty Brit has confirmed the happy news with a photo posted to her Instagram.com page on Monday evening (24Mar14).

The candid snap features a photo of the 34 year old and her 27-year-old toyboy holding a balloon with the word 'engaged' written on it.

Brook accompanied the big reveal picture with the caption: "Lovely weekend in Wigan meeting my new extended Family. Such happy times and excited to share my life with the most wonderful man I've ever met."

The star will become a stepmum when she exchanges vows with McKintosh - he has a two-year-old son, called Logan, from a relationship with former Miss England Rachel Christie, who he split from in December (13), a week before meeting his new fiancee.
