Gavin Henson is engaged to be married after South Africa proposal

Gavin Henson is engaged to be married to partner Katie Wilson Mould.

Welsh rugby star Henson, who is preparing to open a pub in a Welsh village, has been in a relationship with Mould for several years.

The couple actually got engaged in November last year in South Africa, with snaps of the couple's trip showing them take in the stunning scenery of Cape Town's Table Mountain and the country's beautiful beaches.

The romance, between the now ex-Dragons player and the daughter of late property tycoon and racehorse owner Raymond Mould, first hit the headlines in the summer of 2016.

Father-of-two Henson, 37, is poised to open pub and restaurant the Fox and Hounds following his release from the Dragons earlier this month.

Builders have been working hard on pub, in St Brides Major, for the past month after Henson purchased the freehold for the pub after it closed last year.

He hopes to have the beautiful stone pub open by the time the Rugby World Cup starts in late September, and builders have gutted the premises in recent weeks. You can read the full story on his career change here.

It is unclear whether Henson intends to continue with rugby in any form, with the semi-professional game in the Welsh Premiership one option.
