Philip couldn't believe his luck as he watched Victoria's face light up with joy at his proposal. It was Boxing Day, and they were in Tenby, surrounded by hundreds of people who were all eagerly anticipating their annual swim in the cold ocean waters. But for Philip, this swim would be even more special as he was about to ask the love of his life to marry him.
As the couple prepared to take the plunge, Philip took a deep breath and got down on one knee, holding out a small box with the most beautiful ring inside. His heart was racing as he asked Victoria to be his wife, and luckily for him, she responded with an ecstatic "yes!"
The ocean waves crashed in the background as the couple celebrated with a splash, with their special song, "Ocean Eyes" by Billie Eilish, playing in the background. It was a carefully planned proposal, and Philip couldn't have been happier with how it turned out.
Afterwards, as they dried off and cuddled on the beach, Philip couldn't help but reflect on how nerve-wracking the whole experience had been. As a former Royal Marine, he had faced many scary situations, but this proposal was definitely up there with the most nail-biting ones.
Philip and Victoria's love story began when they first met, and she couldn't wait to show him around her hometown of Pembrokeshire. They have since made many trips to visit her family, explore the beaches, and take in the breathtaking scenery. Philip, being a Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach, also loves sea swimming and believes it is beneficial for both the body and mind. However, Victoria has never been a fan of the cold water.
But on their first Christmas together, Victoria surprised Philip by taking him to Tenby for the Boxing Day Swim. It was a fond memory for him, and he wanted to return the favor by surprising her with his proposal at this year's swim.
Although they currently live in Surrey, the couple always makes time to return to Pembrokeshire, where Victoria grew up. It holds a special place in their hearts, and they love to soak up the familiar surroundings whenever they can.
As they shared their happy news with fellow swimmers, Victoria's mother and childhood best friend, Sean Griffiths, were there to witness the proposal. The couple was showered with congratulations and well wishes from everyone around them.
The swim chairman, Sam Skyrme-Blackhall, couldn't help but express his surprise at the proposal. They had invited people to take the plunge at the Tenby Boxing Day Swim, but they certainly weren't expecting a romantic proposal to take place as well. He offered his heartfelt congratulations to the happy couple.
Philip and Victoria's love story had taken another beautiful turn, and they were looking forward to spending the rest of their lives together. As they cuddled on the beach, watching the sunset, they knew that this would be a memory they would always cherish.
