Love all! Kim's long wait is over as Andy proposes after nine years

After winning Wimbledon last summer, there was really only one ‘will he/won’t he’ question Andy Murray had left to answer.

And it was a resounding ‘yes, he will’ as the tennis star finally became engaged to his girlfriend – nine years after they first met.

He proposed to Kim Sears, 26, last week with a diamond ring he chose himself and she immediately said ‘yes’.

 

Sources said the couple had hoped to keep their engagement secret for some time and have not yet made plans for their wedding.

Murray, 27, who flew to the Philippines for a tennis tournament yesterday, had not even shared his happy news with some of his closest family members.

The sportsman’s mother Judy said last night that she was ‘thrilled’, but his grandmother said she had heard only ‘rumours’.
