Olympic swimmer Emily Seebohm and Married At First Sight star Ryan Gallagher are engaged.
The couple, who met on Channel 10’s new reality show The Challenge last year, confirmed the happy news on Monday.
The reality star, 34, proposed to Emily, 30, at a pond on his farm near Goulburn, NSW.
He presented the swimmer with a trilogy diamond ring from Goulburn’s Zantis Jewellers, with a large square center stone representing her love, surrounded by two smaller diamonds representing the couple.
“If you know, you know,” Ryan told Woman’s Day. “I got nervous. The box made a small dent in my pocket. So she either knew I was proposing or she just thought I’d be happy to see her!’

Meanwhile, Emily explained that the couple’s quickie engagement follows the theme of their blossoming romance.
“We did last week[van The Challenge]knew we had feelings there,” she told the magazine.
She said she had to call at the time to end her relationship with her then-boyfriend.
“Obviously it wasn’t a pretty call, but I told him what was going on and that something was going on with Ryan and I didn’t see the point in wasting any more time.”
Emily and Ryan plan to marry in a ceremony on the Gold Coast in the next few years and are planning a big engagement party in the meantime.

The reality star, 34, proposed to Emily, 30, at a pond on his farm just outside Goulburn, NSW.
The couple first sparked rumors that they were engaged in December after Emily was spotted wearing another diamond ring on her finger.
This came after they went official on Instagram earlier that same month.
“Ryan is a gentleman and the nicest person I have ever met. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us,” Emily said of their relationship.
The couple explained that they kept their romance a secret for months because they were starring in The Challenge together.
“Finally we got the crap and posted our own picture,” Ryan said.
“We just did it, it’s our relationship and there’s nothing negative about it.”
Ryan rose to fame in 2018 on the fifth season of Married at First Sight, where he was paired with Davina Rankin.
