I'm a Celeb star and model Amy Willerton 'splits' with fiancé after seven years

I'm a Celeb star Amy Willerton has reportedly broken up with her fiancé after the pair got engaged in 2019.

The model, 30, and Daniel, 29, share a two-year-old daughter together and it's understood there are no hard feelings.

The beauty queen rose to fame when she appeared on Signed by Katie, which saw model hopefuls compete for a management contract with a company owned by Katie Price.

Sparks flew between Amy and Joey Essex when they appeared on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Outta Here in 2013, with the model coming fifth in the competition.

However, some viewers accused their romance of being for show, and after going on a few dates once out of the jungle, they went their separate ways.

Amy and Daniel got together in 2015 and became engaged in 2019, but a source says the pair have called time on their relationship.

A friend told The Sun: “Amy and Daniel have ended their relationship and their engagement is over.

“There are no hard feelings and both are committed co-parents to their daughter.”

Daniel asked the Miss Universe Great Britain winner to marry him during a ski holiday in the Alps, but she told him it didn't count because he was down on two knees rather than just one.

Amy told Hello! magazine: "The second time around I made him do it on one knee because I didn't know if proposing on both knees counted."

Amy said she expected a day of skiing on the slopes, but was surprised by evidence of a different plan.

She said: "I spied a breakfast picnic set up with candles, a firepit, a bottle of our favourite champagne and red roses everywhere.

"Then he dropped to both knees and pulled out a box from his pocket containing the most beautiful ring. It felt like a dream."

Daniel said: "I couldn't have asked for it to go better."

Earlier this year Amy moved to Ibiza, after she fell in love with the sun-drenched Spanish island.

The beauty has spoken about her affection for the area, writing on Instagram previously: “I first came here 8 years ago on a fitness retreat… one magical kayaking trip to #benirras and some #reiki later. I knew it was a special place.

“I managed to come back every summer since for a weekend & as the years went by I realised that every time I felt a loss of connection with myself I wanted to be on #Ibiza.

“Last summer a local said to me, ‘Amy why don’t you live here?’ and actually I didn’t really know why I didn’t live there. But I knew one day that I wanted to….

“I learn something new everyday that I’m here.”
