The couple had been enjoying a sunrise walk by the sea when Jamie popped the question. While their engagement took place on Friday, the pair waited until Sunday evening to share the news on social media.

“Our most special sunrise stroll yet,” Holly wrote alongside the post. “Here’s to forever.” 

In an interview with the Irish Examiner in 2022, the Dubliner spoke about her relationship with Jamie, who she has been dating for four years.

“He has seen me at my worst— definitely—and my best, so I don’t feel like I have to have any kind of guard up with him or pretend I’m okay,” she said.
