According to reports, Mitch proposed in July 2024 while the pair were enjoying their French holiday.

A source told The Sun: “Nicola has met her soulmate in Mitch. She couldn’t be happier.”

Mitch, an accountant and semi-professional footballer, was first seen publicly with Nicola at Elton John’s concert in June 2022.

He previously played for Essex club Grays Athletic and captained Team Great Britain at the European Maccabi Games in Israel.

Now five months along, the singer and her fiancé are set to welcome their baby in the spring.
