'Something happened' Andrea McLean confirms engagement to partner Nick Feeney
Lovely news for the Loose Women star!
TV presenter Andrea McLean has confirmed that she's engaged to her partner, Nick Feeney.
The Loose Women star took to Twitter to share the happy news with fans, writing: 'Something happened... #engaged #heputaringonit #beyondhappy #excited #loveisintheair 💍❤️' alongside a picture of the couple proudly showing off a stunning diamond ring on her left hand.
Andrea's 222k followers have rushed to congratulate the 47-year-old on her announcement, with one writing: 'Huge congratulations Andrea & Nick. So happy for you both xxx 🎉🎊💍'
'Awwww let me cry right now. I'm so so happy for you,' another agreed. 'You deserve this. You deserve all the happiness in the world genuinely 💕💕💕💕😭😭😭😭😊😊'
The marriage will be the third for Andrea, who has been candid about her 'painful' divorces in the past.
In 2000, she married producer Nick Green, with whom she welcomed son Finlay the following year, but the pair split in 2004.
Andrea subsequently wed Our House presenter Steve Toms, the father of her second child Amy, in 2009, but announced their separation three years later.

She began dating now-fiancé Nick in 2014, after being introduced to him by a make-up artist on the ITV show, and in 2016, revealed that they'd moved in together.
During an interview with HELLO! magazine that same year, Andrea gushed of their relationship: 'I never thought I'd feel like this again, that I'd fall in love and get the chance to start a new life.'
'It's been a revelation to him, too. And because we make each other so happy, it's changed our lives.'
She also joked that Nick had initially been 'terrified' of meeting her fellow Loose Women panellists, adding: 'The ladies were lovely to him, especially Linda Robson who calls herself Nana Linda and is my surrogate nana.'
'She was over the moon and said, "I'm so happy you've found love again and are being looked after by a nice man".'
