After experiencing heartbreak at the Euro 2024 final, English footballer Ollie Watkins had something to celebrate as he proposed to his long-time girlfriend, Ellie Alderson. The happy couple shared photos of their romantic engagement at the stunning Lake Como on Instagram, capturing the beautiful moment they both said "yes" to forever.
In the first photo, Ollie and Ellie stood on a balcony adorned with white flowers, dressed in all-white, with the picturesque lake and hills in the background. In another photo, Ellie sat on Ollie's lap, her hand lovingly placed on his cheek as they shared a kiss. The couple also shared some snaps of the dreamy Italian view, making their engagement even more special.
Friends and fans flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages, with TV personality Josh Denzel, footballer Reece Cole, and fellow pro Morgan Rogers among them. Ellie's twin sister Sofia and Love Island star Dani Dyer, who recently got engaged herself, also extended their well wishes to the couple.
After getting engaged, Ollie and Ellie continued their Italian getaway in Milan, enjoying each other's company and making the most of their time together. Ellie has been a regular at Ollie's football matches, cheering him on and showing her unwavering support. The couple often shares photos of their family, including their two children, Amara May and Marley, whom they welcomed in 2021 and 2023, respectively.
Ellie, who has a diploma in interior design and a depop shop where she sells second-hand designer pieces, has been a constant source of love and encouragement for Ollie. She was also present in Germany earlier this month, supporting Ollie and his team as they played in the Euros. In one sweet moment captured on camera, Ellie was seen passionately kissing Ollie in the stands.
Despite England's loss to Spain in the finals, Ollie's last-minute goal was a proud moment for Ellie, who shared her excitement on Instagram. The couple will now return to their home in Birmingham as they begin planning their wedding, with Ollie also getting back to playing for his team Aston Villa.
