Montana Brown shows off giant diamond engagement ring after beachfront proposal

Pregnant Montana Brown has given fans a close-up of her huge diamond engagement ring.

The former Love Island star took to Instagram earlier this month to announce she was engaged.

It comes as partner and ‘best friend’ Mark O’Connor got down on one knee during a romantic beach proposal on April 17.

At the time 27-year-old Montana shared black and white snaps of the proposal with the caption: “Love of my life. Can’t wait to marry my best friend.”

Today she shared two new colour snaps of her and Mark - giving her 1.2 million followers a good look at the ring.

Snuggling up to her beau, a loved-up Montana showed off the big oval rock off on her perfectly manicured hand.

In another, Montana and Mark shared a kiss as the sun shone in the background, suggesting they are still on holiday.

The reality TV star cheekily captioned the post: “Stuck with me now... HA.”

“Also only Mark would wear a hoodie on engagement day,” she added followed by a laughing face emoji.

Fans and famous pals were quick to comment underneath with fellow Love Islander Tasha Ghouri replying with two heart eyes emojis.

TOWIE’s Amber Turner said: “Omg congratulations angel so happy for u!”

Beauty influencer Jess Hunt wrote: “This made me so happy! Congratulations.”

“Wowwww that ring!” one fan commented, while another said: “What a rock!”

Poking fun at Mark’s choice of outfit, a third fan added: “Mark did great with that mountain on your hand girl. He can wear a hoodie for life!”

Montana announced that she is expecting her first child with Mark in December, which they have since revealed is a boy.

"Baby O’Connor coming next summer," the mum-to-be captioned a sweet video capturing her pregnancy journey so far.

It was during an exotic babymoon this month that Mark decided to propose.

The couple first went public when they were spotted together in the Caribbean in January 2022, six months after Montana split from model boyfriend Elliott Reeder.

Since then they have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight, aside from announcing their pregnancy and engagement news.

Speaking about her husband-to-be, Montana told New magazine: "Mine and Mark's relationship was born out of the second lockdown.

"I feel like good things always come when you are not expecting it. Last year I convinced myself that I didn't want to meet anyone - I'd be on my own forever instead, but he came along when I wasn't looking."
