Jamie O’Hara revealed that he got engaged yesterday and it seems he didn’t hold back on the ring. The star proposed to new fiancée Keziah Grubb while on a romantic getaway, and their private pool wasn’t the only thing making a splash.
The former footballer shared several photos of the milestone moment on his Instagram, including two close-up shots of Keziah’s sparkling engagement ring. The ring shone on recruitment boss Keziah’s hand, featuring an unbelievably huge diamond set on a thin band encrusted with smaller stones. Maxwell Stone, an expert from jewellers Steven Stone, has weighed in on the gorgeous piece of bling and revealed to the Mirror exactly what went into making it – alongside estimating its jaw-dropping price.

According to the expert, the size of Keziah’s diamond is nothing to laugh at. “Keziah’s stunning engagement ring from Jamie features a breathtaking 4-carat oval-cut diamond”, he said.
Maxwell added: “In photos of the ring, the centre diamond is flanked by smaller oval-cut stones on either side, suggesting it may have diamond-set shoulders. Alternatively, rather than opting for a traditional pavé band, Jamie may have chosen an elegant design featuring a series of interlinked oval-cut diamonds”.
Such a heavy diamond and several smaller glittering stones don’t come cheap, and Maxwell also estimated the value of the stunning jewellery. “I’d estimate Keziah’s ring to be worth around £200, 000”, he revealed.
While £200,000 is quite an investment to make on a piece of jewellery, former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jamie looked over the moon as Keziah said ‘yes’ and put the ring on her finger.
The duo were on holiday when he popped the question, providing a beautiful setting for the life-changing moment. In photos Jamie shared, he and Keziah were captured standing on a balcony overlooking a gorgeous sunset, with mountains visible over the rooftops in the background.

Jamie wore a white top and beige chinos, while Keziah showed off her tan in a chic white skirt as the couple shared a kiss. He added more snaps from the balcony, revealing a small private pool, candles, and more glasses sitting beside a bottle of champagne.
The TalkSport star also penned a moving caption alongside the shots, mentioning his beloved mother Anne who died from cancer aged just 46 when Jamie was only 17.
“SHE SAID YES!!!! So lucky to have found you and my mum would be so proud of us”, he wrote alongside a heart emoji. “@keziah_adrienne you are my everything”.
Prior to his engagement to Keziah, Jamie was married to former Miss England star Danielle Lloyd. The duo share sons Archie, 14, Harry, 13, and George, 11, and tied the knot in 2012.
Just a couple of years after getting married Danielle called time on the relationship, after learning that Jamie had been unfaithful to her.
The 2023 governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Enugu State, Chijioke Edeoga, has returned to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Edeoga had met with the leadership of Enugu State PDP behind closed doors on January 31, fueling speculations about his possible return to his former party.
However, at about 12noon on Monday, Edeoga, accompanied by his supporters, drove into the PDP State office at No. 1 Charles Street, GRA, Enugu, in a convoy and was received by the state party leadership and stakeholders led by the Chairman, Martins Chukwunweike.
Addressing party faithful, Edeoga thanked Governor Peter Mbah and his Eha-Amufu Ward III, Isi-Uzo LGA, and state party leaderships for making his return possible and smooth.
Rededicating himself to the PDP, the former LP gubernatorial candidate, said it was time for all to join hands with Governor Mbah in the great work he is doing in Enugu State.
“I want to say that I’m happy to be here. I want to start by thanking in a very special way, the governor of Enugu State. I appreciate that what has happened today cannot be conceived without his political involvement.
” By this gesture, he has demonstrated a mental state that is worthy of appreciation and that is worthy of being supported or rewarded to the extent that is humanly possible.
“A thing like this has never happened in the annals of Enugu State politics. It might look small, but it will cause a paradigm shift in the way politics is played in Enugu State.
” It is no longer something where you warehouse bitterness. It is no longer winner takes all. All those things that people have been trying to preach in Nigeria like accommodating everybody, are being demonstrated in Enugu State.
“So, I rededicate myself again to the PDP to make sure that the PDP remains a winning machine in Enugu State as it has always been. I am happy to be here. I appreciate all those who made it possible”, he stated.
In his remarks, Chukwunweike described Edeoga’s return as strategic for Enugu PDP, and also had the full blessing of Governor Peter Mbah, whom he said desired a united Enugu PDP.
“Our number one term of reference upon our election as the state’s party leadership is to reunite the party. His Excellency said that we must work to bring everybody together. So, today is a major step in that direction.
” With this move and many others like it to come, 2027 general elections will be a walkover for the PDP in Enugu State. So, we warmly welcome our brother and his supporters back, “he said.
Council Chairman of Isi-Uzo, Edeoga’s home LGA, Obiora Obeagu, described his return as a very welcome development and a milestone for Isi-Uzo and Enugu PDP, an affirmation of Mbah’s leadership, and vindication of those of them who worked for the governor’s victory in the 2023 election.
” It is a welcome development. For me, I will say it is long expected, considering the conciliatory dispositions of our capable governor.
“From day one, the governor has shown that after politics, we have governance. Not minding that the major opposition came from Isi-Uzo, Governor Peter Mbah started a lot of projects there. When the Smart Schools were first awarded, Isi-Uzo got the next to the highest. That will show you the type of leader he is.
” Beyond the Smart Green Schools, we have Type-2 Primary Healthcare Centres across all the wards. We have the almost completed 21.7km asphalt road going to our farm settlements as well as the ongoing 41km Owo-Ubahu-Amankanu-Neke-Ikem dual carriageway to help open up the economic corridors and solve the problem of insecurity.
“These things are practical and there is nobody that will see them and will not want to come back to the PDP and join the governor in the good works he is doing to transform Enugu State.
The executor of OJ’s estate, Malcolm LaVergne, said the Bible – which was gifted to OJ Simpson – also included a handwritten note from Kim’s father dated June 18, 1994

Kim Kardashian was reportedly blocked from buying a Bible Robert Kardashian Sr gifted OJ Simpson, which included a note from her dad. The Bible, which was given to the late football player the day after he was arrested for murder, has now been sold at an auction for $80,000 (£62,000).
The executor of OJ’s estate, Malcolm LaVergne, said the Bible also included a handwritten note from Kim’s father dated June 18, 1994. “OJ, this book will help. God loves and he will speak to you with his words. Read this book every day. God has a definite plan for your life. You are his child and he will use you again. I love you and God loves you”, the note read.

According to RadarOnline, Kim wanted to buy the book but it was denied by the late football star’s estate. The Mirror have reached out to Kim’s representatives for comment.
Robert died in September 2003, just two months after being diagnosed with oesophageal cancer. The lawyer rose to prominence through his involvement in the OJ Simpson murder trial.
The lawyer was diagnosed with oesophageal cancer in July 2003. The sad news came as a shock to his loved ones as he didn’t smoke or drink. There was also no history of cancer in his family.

Kim had been very close to her dad and recently revealed how she learned his cancer was terminal. Robert had been dining out with his family at their favourite Armenian restaurant when he struggled to swallow his food and seemed unwell.
When they went to the hospital, the doctor revealed to Kim and her sister Kourtney Kardashian that their dad’s cancer was terminal.
Robert didn’t want to tell his parents about his diagnosis, but Kim thought it was important for them to know. “I called them, and they were, like, ‘ What? What are you talking about? We’ll be there in a few hours”, Kim recalled in an interview with GQ magazine.
“They came up from Palm Springs, and]their son] was in bed. Can you imagine? They were close, and to not tell them. My grandmother was never the same again”.
Khloe Kardashian previously talked about her father’s in her memoir Strong Looks Better Naked. She said: “At the funeral, when I saw my father in his casket, I completely fell apart.
” I don’t remember the details, but apparently I was an emotional wreck, and I’m told that I was so distraught I actually passed out. At one point I fell to the floor kicking and screaming, and I had to be sedated.
“It was really intense. I refused to believe my father was gone”.

Matheus Cunha says he wants to take Wolves to “another level” and that a recent interview in which he seemed to imply he needed to leave the club had been misinterpreted.
Brazil striker Cunha said in an interview with the Observer that he has told Wolves he needs to “take the next step” and fight for titles in his career.
The former Atletico Madrid player has a £62.5m release clause in the four-and-a-half-year deal he signed in February.
Speaking in a social media video on Monday, the 25-year-old said people did not have “correct interpretation”.
“It’s impossible for the player to be honest in an interview knowing that everything can be taken in any way he wants”, he said.
“I don’t think a lot of people read the interview, and I don’t think that people have the correct interpretation. Of course the point was talking about Wolves, to show everyone how happy I am to be here, to play for this team, to play for these team-mates and of course give back all the love that they give to me.
He is committed – Pereira
Wolves are 17th and nine points above the Premier League relegation zone before Tuesday’s home game against West Ham, and also speaking on Monday, head coach Vitor Pereira said has no immediate concerns about Cunha as the club look to secure their top flight status.
” He is committed. This is the present. The future, I don’t know, “Pereira said.
” He knows his potential. He is a top player. It’s normal he has the ambition to fight for titles. It’s natural. It happens with other players. But the most important thing is to be committed and help the team to achieve our targets. At the end of the season we will see. “
Cunha, who scored Brazil’s goal in their 4-1 World Cup qualifying defeat to Argentina last week which cost Dorival Junior his job, has scored 15 times for Wolves this season.
He is currently halfway through a four-game ban for acting in an improper manner when he was sent off for clashing with Bournemouth defender Milos Kerkez in Wolves ‘ FA Cup defeat on 1 March.
He will sit out the visit of the Hammers and Saturday’s trip to Ipswich before being available to face Tottenham on 13 April.

Just this past weekend, Molly and Tommy enjoyed a cosy Mother’s Day together with their daughter. In exclusive pictures, the couple were seen arriving separately at a Cheshire pub to mark the occasion. The Love Island couple announced their shock split last year, with fans stunned by the announcement they had gone their separate ways. Following the news, Molly-Mae’s documentary aired, where she admitted it was hard going through a split in the public eye.
In a separate interview, Tommy also shared his thoughts on the split and explained what happened between them to end their romance. However, later, the pair were seen on holiday in Dubai together.
They avoided being photographed together until they made their return to Manchester. However, the couple seem happier than ever and in new photos, the pair arrived and left separately at the pub in their matching cars. The couple had spent the day together with Bambi at the Lowry Theatre before making their way to the pub.
Just last week, Molly-Mae finally addressed speculation she had reunited with Tommy. In a video shared online with her fans, she said: “We’re just figuring things out. We had a really really amazing time, probably the best holiday ever for all of us. It’s not I’m hiding it, I’m not quite ready to talk about it. It’s also as private, but also it’s not really private.
” When you have a relationship in the public eye, trying to rebuild that relationship or work on that relationship or see if you have something worth saving… You can’t figure things out the way a normal relationship would. You can’t do the normal things a couple trying to work on their relationship normally do. “

Speaking to Bambi, she added:” We’re just figuring things out and seeing how it goes. “She also admitted she was struggling with anxiety and pulled a clip of her talking about Tommy from her past vlog.
” I don’t want you guys to think I’m not being honest about who went on the holiday to Dubai. I did do a big talking section that we were going with Tommy, but I didn’t want to put it in the last vlog because I didn’t want anxiety, “she said”, The only reason I’ve not spoken about it is I’m not ready to. I was a bit nervous and I didn’t need to explain that I was going with Tommy. “

Jamie Oliver, famed for his quick and easy recipes for all the family, met wife Jools when he was just a teenager and has spoken candidly about the ups and downs of marriage
Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has renewed his wedding vows(Image: NBC, Weiss Eubanks/NBCUniversal via Getty Images)
Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has been loved up with wife Jools for more than thirty years, but it hasn’t always been plain sailing for the teenage sweethearts. On camera, Jamie is known as one of the nation’s most well-loved celebrity chefs.
He is famed for his quick and easy 15-minute meals, and now has a TV series dedicated to air fryer recipes, with Jamie’s Air Fryer Meals on Channel 4. Since rising to stardom almost 25 years ago with The Naked Chef series, he has been on a mission to educate parents and their children about how to eat more healthily.

But away from the screens, the 49-year-old is a proud family man and devoted husband. He and wife Jools share a brood of five, each with unusual names – Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, Petal Blossom Rainbow, Buddy Bear Maurice, and River Rocket Blue Dallas.
The family-of-seven moved into a £6m 16th-century mansion in Essex in 2019, which boasts a 70-acre estate with a pool, tennis court, and its own allotment. The TV chef has often been open about his long marriage to his beloved Juliette Norton, known as Jools, laying bare, with brutal honesty, the ups and downs which left them in a ‘ rut’.
The pair got together as teenagers and have remained together ever since(Image: joolsoliver/Instagram)
The couple tied the knot in 2000 after first meeting as teenagers when they were just 17 and 18. Despite Jools moving away to live in Tokyo for three months, he was undeterred by the long distance and sent her romantic love letters in a bid to win over his future wife. ”When I was 17 I worked in Tokyo for three months and every single day Jamie sent me a letter or a fax without fail!” Jools shared to her Instagram account.
When she returned they became inseparable, renting a tiny flat in Hammersmith while Jamie worked in the kitchen at the famous River Cafe. But after two decades of marriage and five children later, it is no surprise that there have been a few lessons learned along the way. In 2021, Jamie revealed to the Australian Women’s Weekly: ‘ ‘ I think you learn to love in lots of different ways.
‘ ‘ You learn to love the person you married but also, it’s exciting because the rollercoaster of growing, becoming parents, getting older, having grey hairs and wrinkles, you can love all those bits. You don’t just love one bit. I feel very lucky. I started dating Jools when I was 18. She’s been a really solid and utterly important part of my life and my job’s quite exciting.
“It expects quite a lot, and she’s my rock. She allows me to do my thing but then comes home and lets me be me… And I think she still quite likes me, which is really nice”. But their journey hasn’t been smooth sailing, with jealousy and speculation about cheating rearing its ugly head more than once.

With stay-at-home mum Jools taking on the bulk of the parenting and spending weeks on end away from her busy husband, Jamie’s extreme work schedule began to cause friction. He had vowed to quit public life within three years back in 2005, but by 2011 he was still just a ‘ weekend dad ‘ and the infamous workaholic admitted their marriage was in a ‘ rut’.
Jamie said in 2011: “I’m not a worrier but she is a worrier. I don’t need that and she doesn’t need that, so we’re in a bit of a rut”. Jools also opened up about tension, admitting: “We bicker all the time. A lot of my friends can’t believe how much. He drives me mad because he never listens to me and I drive him mad because I can be horribly selfish”.
In the same year, Jools admitted that she snooped on him to check he wasn’t having an affair. She explained in The Telegraph: “I’ll check his email. I’ll check his Twitter. I’ll check his phone. Everything seems fine. He says I’m a jealous girl, but I think I’m fairly laidback, considering”.
What she was referring to was his early days in showbiz, when Jamie had admitted to girls throwing themselves at him. He previously said: “It wasn’t just young girls, it was medium and young girls and it was classic slightly rock star-esque: random knickers and bras getting thrown at you”, he told the Telegraph.
And in 2018, Jamie confirmed that his wife suspected he had in fact cheated on her. He told Closer magazine: “My missus accused me of having an affair once, because I kept disappearing and coming back with green on my knees. It was courgette season and I was in the vegetable patch”!
Meanwhile, Jools has previously opened up about the heartbreak of suffering five miscarriages. Two happened before she gave birth to her son River, four, in 2016, and another three came afterwards. Marking Baby Loss Awareness Week in 2020, she paid tribute to, “our own 5 little stars we never got to hold in our arms xxx”

But Jamie and Jools faced the hard times together and renewed their vows earlier this year, in a very different ceremony to when they first got hitched. Ahead of the special day, Jools told Red Magazine: “We’re going to get married again, but do things differently – outside and barefoot. Our wedding was formal, but we’re so not like that. It’ll be a big party. Why the hell not? I think we’ve done well”!
When the time came in April, after 23 years together, Jamie revealed to fans that it took place on the beach in the Maldives. Announcing the happy news, Jamie wrote: ‘ ‘ Yep, after 23 years together, we thought it would be a special moment to celebrate renewing our wedding vows before the kids all start leaving the nest.

‘ ‘ It was really special, funny and romantic with the words in the ceremony making more sense having come this far together. It seems like a blink since the first wedding which we kept very private apart from the paparazzi at the village church we thought it would be a happy and joyful moment to share with you all this Easter. ‘ We’ve always dreamed of going to the Maldives and it was just as you would have dreamed, simply amazing. ‘ ‘
