Paul Hollywood is reportedly engaged to his partner Melissa Spalding.

The Great British Bake Off judge, 56, and the pub landlady, 38, have been together for the past three years and Paul is said to have popped the question a few months ago.

A source said: ‘Paul proposed some months ago, but they have been keeping it very quiet since then.

‘It’s only in the past month that she has begun wearing her engagement ring out in public, and sharing their news with friends.’

They added to The Sun: ‘There are no wedding plans in place yet.’

Paul split from ex-wife Alexandra in 2017, with their their divorce being finalised in 2019 after 19 years of marriage.

He was then in a relationship with Summer Monteys-Fullam after the pair met in the summer of 2017.

They split in 2019, after he asked her to sign a non-disclosure agreement, with Summer hitting out at her ex in various ways on social media.

Tony Amlot, a lawyer for Paul at the time, said he asked her to sign it as ‘standard practice in order to protect Paul’s family and their private lives.’

Paul and Melissa sparked romance rumours when they holidayed at a five-star hotel in Cyprus – the same place where he married his now ex-wife Alexandra.

They confirmed their relationship in December 2019 when they spent Christmas Day together at her pub, with a spokesperson for Paul saying at the time: ‘They are very happily together.’

It’s believed Melissa moved into Paul’s farmhouse over lockdown.

‘They bubbled up together and [she] stayed at his house,’ an insider told the Mail Online. ‘Now she is there for good. They are delightfully happy, though it must be a bit strange given it was bought for Summer.’

The loved-up couple also made their red carpet debut last year, posing together at the premiere of The King’s Man, and seem to be going from strength to strength.

Metro.co.uk has contacted reps for Paul Hollywood for comment.
