Brianne, 39, wrote on Instagram: 'He couldn't have been more perfect I love you @kdkilbane77 . 02.04.2020 [ring emoji]'.

She also shared a clip of the moment Kevin got down on one knee, which was greeted by plenty of applause and cheering. 

In the clip, Kevin could be seen singing The Dubliners, Grace, an usual choice of song as it depicts the love story between Joseph Plunket and Grace Gifford who married hours before Joseph was executed for his part in the 1916 rising in Dublin Grace.

A waiter then brought over a cake and a sparkling ring to the table, as a shocked Brianne accepted his proposal.

Taking to Instagram after the event, Brianne showed off her incredible ring as she gished: 'He was worth the wait. Kev, you've made me the happiest girl in the world. You're my fairtytale ending.' 

Andrew Brown, CEO of WP Diamonds, offered his expertise on Brianne's sparkler, telling MailOnline: 'Brianne's engagement ring looks to be a 3-carat pear shaped diamond with a diamond halo. 

'Assuming it is a white diamond with a colour clarity of G VS, the ring would retail for around £53,000.' 

The engagement topped off a celebratory weekend for the pair, who had enjoyed a romantic getaway in honour of their birthdays last weekend.

Their Dancing On Ice journey came to a swift end, however, as they became the fourth couple to get eliminated from the show on Sunday night.

The couple recently admitted that they have no plans for their relationship to be long-distance, despite Brianne living in Canada and Kevin residing in Ireland.

The professional skater raises daughter Gracie, three, with an unnamed ex.

Meanwhile, Kevin has two daughters, 16-year-old Elsie and 14-year-old Isla, with his ex-wife Laura, who he split from in 2011 after 12 years of marriage.

The pair tied the knot when Kevin was just 22 and he has blamed the split on the couple being 'naive' about settling down at such a young age. 

DATING ON ICE: BRIANNE'S RELATIONSHIP HISTORY

Canadian pair skater Brianna Delcourt has hit the headlines with her past relationships, having romanced four celebrity contestants on Dancing On Ice 

2010 -  Danny Young

Brianne made her show debut during series five with Hollyoaks star Kieron Richardson, with the pair finishing in third place. 

Despite not winning, the blonde bombshell bagged herself a man, striking up a romance with Coronation Street actor Danny Young, who was partnered with skater Frankie Poultney.

The couple started dating shortly after the series finished and moved in together later that year. 

The pair split within a few months and despite rekindling their romance in 2011, it wasn't meant to be, as Brianne then met her next boyfriend, Sam Attwater.

2011 - Sam Attwater

During her second season on the show, Brianne was partnered with EastEnders star Sam Attwater, with the couple going on to win the series. 

They didn't just take home the trophy, however, with Brianne and Sam striking up a romance during their time on the ice. 

However, many fans questioned the legitimacy of their relationship after Sam was pictured kissing Alexandra Schauman, 30, another professional skater.

2013 - Matt Lapinskas

Brianne was partnered with EastEnders actor Matt Lapinskas in 2013, who at the time was dating his co-star Shona McGarty. 

Matt and Shona had been dating for 18 months and split during his time on Dancing On Ice, he then began dating Brianne. 

The actor denied that he had been unfaithful to Shona and insisted he didn't strike up a romance with Brianne until he was single. 

However, after they split the following year, Brianne went on to tell The Sun On Sunday: 'He pursed me behind Shona's back. Lots of people warned me but I didn't listen.'

Brianne also claimed that Matt had cheated on her with his new co-star, Camilla Rowland. 

She revealed: 'Matt has totally betrayed me. He's been nasty and he's life, when all I've done for the last two years is try to help and protect him'.

Tense end: Brianne claimed that Matt began seeing her when he was still dating Shona McGarty, then claimed he cheated on her with his new co-star, Camilla Rowland

Brianne has hit the headlines with her past relationships, having previously romanced her Dancing On Ice celebrity partners Matt Lapinskas and Sam Attwater as well as Danny Young, who was partnered with Frankie Poultney.  

Brianne dated former EastEnders star Matt after they were paired together on the 2013 series but they split after claims he cheated on her with two other women.

She previously dated Danny Young in 2010, with the couple moving in together shortly after the Dancing On Ice tour ended.

Once the next series started in 2011, however, it was reported that the couple had split after Brianne started rehearsing with actor Sam Attwater, but their relationship ground to a halt once the series had ended.  

Brianne recently insisted that Kevin isn't part of a pattern, as she gushed to OK magazine: 'There is no comparison of Kevin to the guys I used to date.

'He's perfect and my best friend. Kevin has all the boxes checked for what I'm looking for in my life.'

Past: It is the fourth romance Brianne has been in due to the show as she has dated her past celebrity partners, including Matt Lapinskas (pictured in March 2013)

Brianne added that having her daughter changed her temperament as she used to be a 'party girl', but now wants 'contentment and to settle down'.

Kevin previously revealed that he knew 'straight away' that he had feelings for pro Brianne.

The retired footballer said on Friday's Lorraine that their romance 'happened very quickly', while Brianne gushed that she 'adores him.'

In their first TV interview as a couple, Kevin recalled how it was almost love at first sight when he was paired up with Brianne.

He said: 'When we first met four months ago, everything happened very quickly, it absolutely did. I certainly knew straight away that was it, yeah.

'I had huge reservations when I signed up for the show but then Brianne and I got together and it was great, I could have quit before the show started and I would have been happy. Everything's been great, everything's gone really well.'

Lovely: The couple dodged elimination three times but fell foul to the skate off on Sunday and were booted off the show

Brianne also gushed that she 'adores' Kevin, but admitted that being in a relationship with him has made it harder to remain strict during their training sessions.

She said: 'Im used to being a tough coach, but it's a bit hard with Kevin because obviously there's feelings involved, I adore him, so it's hard. 

'Even if I do try to be hard, he just laughs at me.'
