GMTV's Jenni Falconer announced her engagement today, after being whisked away to New York for an "incredibly romantic" proposal.

Romantic: Jenni Falconer is engaged

Fiance James Midgley popped the question during the trip last weekend.

Presenter Falconer, 33, said: "It was incredibly romantic and was a gorgeous, warm evening; the lights of Manhattan shone in the distance and we had a band playing live music on a boat.

"I'd been laughing so much all evening, I was genuinely surprised by James's proposal.

"I did hope I'd be romanced, but never expected a gesture like this.

"In saying that, I was delighted to be asked - and of course my answer was a definite yes."

Last month, GMTV host Kate Garraway gave birth to a boy, named William Garraway Draper.

Garraway, 42, is married to Labour activist-turned-psychotherapist Derek Draper and the couple also have a three-year-old daughter, Darcey.
