Vick Hope has finally spoken out about being engaged to Calvin Harris and his “perfect" proposal.

Harris, 39, had reportedly popped the question to the presenter after just five months of dating.

It was said that the chart-topping DJ got down on one knee on his farm in Ibiza last summer and presented the 33-year-old with a diamond ring worth £1 million.

Addressing the rumours,  Hope told You magazine: “[A] very precious thing has happened," before revealing: “It was… perfect."

The former Strictly contestant added that her Radio 1 co-host, Jordan North, hasn’t stopped teasing her about the engagement, especially after she and Harris spent Christmas whizzing around the Caribbean on his private jet.

She also revealed why she doesn’t share details of her romance publicly.

“We don’t really put anything on social media because the time we have together is ‘real life’ and it’s our own," she explained.

“For the first time in a long time, I’m finishing work and going home to a life that is just mine. I’m learning to find balance and peace."

When asked about how they balance their relationship with their careers, she said: “We both have very busy work schedules.

“I’ll join him when I can and then I come back for my work."

Harris, who has previously dated Taylor Swift and Rita Ora, had tried his chances with Hope before he hit the big time several years ago, but she had rejected him.

“It’s something that we laughed about on our first proper date," she revealed. “We still laugh about it now."
