Caroline Flack engaged: Andrew Brady ‘thanks God’ he found her

Their tributes to one another have been more and more gushing since they revealed they were engaged over the weekend.

And Andrew Brady has taken to Instagram to ‘thank God’ that he found Caroline Flack in his most recent declaration of adoration. 

The former Apprentice contestant, 27, uploaded a snap of the pair perched on a step in sunnier climes together, looking cosy and laughing.

The shades-wearing duo seemed more than at ease with one another in the snap, which Andrew captioned: ‘Thank GOD I found this one; shame about the shoes #whatarethose’

Poking fun at his wife-to-be’s footwear, Caroline, 38, perched with her fiance on the step in a shoulder-less summer top, shorts and underwhelming black flip flops.

She wore her locks in a tumbling ‘do above her head and she was seen laughing at her other half, who placed a hand around her.

Andrew looked just as summery in a patterned shirt and shorts – with the woman he has only been dating for three months.

His caption could be seen as a dig at his ex, who wasted no time in telling her story about Andrew as the engagement was announced on Saturday.

Radio DJ Rachael Rhodes wrote a blog post about her heartbreak, in which she spoke candidly about their romance, claiming that she was dumped without any explanation.

It’s believed Andrew moved straight from his relationship with Rachael to Caroline, with a friend of the DJ’s tweeting: ‘Just seen @itsandrewbrady is engaged to Caroline Flack I’m sure you were with my mate 3 months ago telling her you were gonna marry her? Eeeeeee!! #famew***e’.

Rachael – who has starred on Ibiza Weekender – went on to claim in her blog that she was ‘ghosted’ by the CBB star, who moved on to pop the question to Caroline. 

She wrote: ‘My last breakup was the first one I couldn’t hide my pain for. I couldn’t put on a brave face anymore, I’d been “strong” for too long.

‘I knew it was over before it was over. I was ghosted again. It was all too familiar. 

‘The last time I’d seen him he described our wedding to me, told me how many kids we were having and what colour their hair would be, he told my Mum what ring he wanted to get me and again, like magic – POOF. I broke.’

As seen on screen: Whilst Andrew began dating Caroline in February, he was believed to still be seeing Rachael in January - during which time  he appeared on Celebrity Big Brother

Whilst Andrew began dating Caroline in February, he was believed to still be seeing Rachael in January – during which time his profile was raised as he appeared on Celebrity Big Brother. 

Whilst Andrew didn’t mention that he had a girlfriend during his time on the show, the story came to light when a former Big Brother housemate spilled the beans. 

After Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace tweeted asking whether Andrew was gay, Mark Byron replied: ‘Nooo babe he’s my best friend @RachRhodes_ boyfriend! X’ 

MailOnline has contacted Andrew’s representatives for comment.   

Meanwhile, Caroline has been mocked by Love Island fans for getting engaged to Andrew after three months of dating.

However, several followers were quick to mention how fast the decision seemed to have been reached, taking their disbelief to social media. 

Commenting on her post, which saw Caroline flash her engagement ring while Andrew bit on her finger, fans wrote: ‘Cringe. Been together 5 minutes and split up once’; ‘I could not be more angry’; ‘are you kidding? Do you even know the guy?

‘Let me count… the reasons this is the worst rash decision in history. i mean, 3 months of drama now this, drama addicts the both of you. This is silly. Nah, i will unfollow.’

The Apprentice star is said to have got down on one knee last week and the pair are now enjoying a two-week holiday to celebrate their new relationship status.

A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: ‘Caroline is totally in love. Andrew treats her like a princess. She’s grinning from ear to ear because she feels like she’s found The One. All Caroline’s family love him and he’s got the Flack seal of approval.

‘She’s so happy that she is able to go on Love Island this year having found love herself. She views it as a fairytale story.’

Although they seem loved up now, their relationship hasn’t been smooth sailing as Caroline dumped the Celebrity Big Brother star last month over rumours that he was using her to get famous but, following a crisis talk, they managed to get back on track.  

The Love Island host was said to have broken up with the reality star after she grew suspicious at the presence of photographers who would only appear when she was with him.

An insider told The Sun at the time: ‘He always made sure he looked good and would play up to the cameras. But all she wanted was for their romance to be as private as possible. 

‘The trust between them had gone after a girl claimed she kissed him on a night out and there had been several occasions where his side of the story about what had happened with other women during his personal appearances at clubs just didn’t ring true.’

Fun in the sun: Earlier in the week, Caroline was seen in a selfie with her beau, which was artistically blurred as he did a 'rock and roll' sign with his hands

It was also claimed Andrew had ‘shared a passionate kiss’ with a dance teacher he met in a Chester night club, shortly after going public with Caroline.

It is believed the former Strictly star was left devastated by the split, as it came just days after she introduced Andrew to her entire family at her father’s 70th birthday.

A source told MailOnline: ‘First of all there was the first girl who came forward and then there was a second girl and while it wasn’t proven but its broken down the trust. She’s obviously very upset.’

Undoubtedly red-faced over the event, Caroline removed all traces of the CBB star from her social media.  

And while they’ve only been dating for a couple of months, Caroline has already had her man’s initials tattooed onto her wrist. 

It’s believed she got the inking done within around 4-6 weeks of them getting together.    

Meanwhile, Caroline hasn’t had the best of luck when it comes to her love life over the years as she has enjoyed a string of high-profile relationships with the likes of Prince Harry and Harry Styles but nothing has ever come of them.   

Andrew also himself shared a shirtless photo of himself with his new look, writing: ‘Blondes have more fun.’ 

It appears that it was Caroline’s friend’s Sam Campbell of Bleach London fame and her sister Lou Teasdale, a who did the dye job, as they were tagged in the photo.

And Andrew’s hair transformation is not yet complete and he’s going to be dyeing his hair in stages to get the final result. 

Andrew wrote that the look was ‘halfway there,’ alongside a blonde man emoji, complete with blonde moustache.
