Jodie Kidd reveals her romantic proposal… while in the bath
Supermodel Jodie Kidd has revealed that her fiancé Joseph Bates proposed to her in Paris… while she was relaxing in the bath.
The avid horse-rider, 43, shared details of last November’s proposal, and called it ‘private, fun and different.’
Speaking to Hello! magazine, the TV star and model said: ‘I thought he was bending down to have a chat with me but suddenly he came out with it.
‘I was a bit shocked. I just said, “Oh my goodness!” But it couldn’t have been a more wonderful moment.
‘I guess in a restaurant it would have been clichéd. But this was private, fun and different.
The ex-Royal Marine explained how he’d been planning the proposal for a long time.
He said: ‘I kept thinking, shall I do it now? Is it the right place? I wanted it to be private, but I sort of ad-libbed.’
The couple, who began dating in 2017, are planning their wedding at a friend’s property in the West Country, but they have not yet fixed a date.
It will be Joseph’s first marriage and Jodie’s third.
She has a 10-year-old son, Indio, from her first relationship with Argentinian polo player Andrea Vianini, whom she split from in 2013.
She then married David Blakeley, but they separated in 2014 after just four months of marriage.
Discussing her past marriages, the ex-show jumper said: ‘I was young and gung-ho, and wanted things far too quickly.
‘I believed in marriage so passionately that I’ve just gone: ‘Yeeees’, and then learnt the error of my ways by being too brash.
‘I hadn’t thought enough about whether it’s the right person who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
‘I’ve now matured somewhat in my rash decision-making. And this isn’t a gunshot wedding. We’ve lived together for three or so years.
‘There’s a lot of stability and we’re an amazing family unit, so it feels a lot safer.’
In 2019, the couple were pictured enjoying a holiday in the Caribbean sea, alongside her son Indio.
