Surprise! Elizabeth Hurley and her soon-to-be fiance Shane Warne pictured last night before his proposal at the Dunhill dinner in St Andrews
She was sporting a stunning sapphire and diamond ring on her wedding finger today, but Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne chose not to comment on the reports he had popped the question when they appeared together at the Dunhill tournament today.
Now, the couple have confirmed their engagement by thanking fans for their well wishes over their Twitter accounts.
'Thanks for all your congratulations,' Hurley tweeted, adding a picture of the couple which she said was taken just before the dinner last night at St Andrews where Warne, 42, proposed.
The Estée Lauder model presumably had no idea that her boyfriend of ten months was about to ask her to marry him as they posed happily for a picture inside the exclusive Old Course Hotel.
Miss Hurley was wearing a strapless nude bandage dress and heavy smokey eye-make-up while the Australian cricketer wore a sharp suit and purple tie.
The sportsman grinned mischievously at the camera, clearly excited about his plan.
And we all know what Elizabeth's answer was to be, as she flashed her stunning ring as she cheered her new fiance on at the tournament again today.

The Estée Lauder model, 45, went for a casual look in a pair of navy jogging bottoms, jumper and scarf as she took to the golf course with Warne, who opted for a baby blue jumper and beige trousers.
Damien, nine, clutched on to his mother's arm as he posed up for a photo with Hurley and Warne, who will soon be his stepfather.
