She declared: "The proposal was simple and beautiful, and then I was shocked by the pop-up surprise Mexican fiesta engagement party. What girl doesn't want to be serenaded by a Mariachi band surrounded by close friends and family?"

The former Dexter’s star and her boyfriend, Rich Orosco, have been a couple since 2007, and the proposal took place in the backyard of the home they share in Los Angeles.

The show that presents the lives and loves of a group of designer-clad partygoers has been a surprise hit, having won the YouTube Audience Award at this year's TV Bafta Awards.

Lime Pictures, the company that produced the successful show known by its fans as “Towie”, is in talks with manufacturers and distributors about a clothing range inspired by the show, but a deal is not believed to be very close.
