Alexandra Burke has revealed she didn’t think Darren Randolph “had the guts” to propose to her.
The former was.
Speaking on HeartRadio she said: ‘Yes, the whole Rosewood London thing, it was so beautiful.
“Oh, my goodness. I can’t even tell you about that day because I thought we were celebrating our anniversary and he just surprised me with how romantic he is because that doesn’t always happen. He doesn’t want to spoil me, that’s it, he wants to keep me on my toes, you know?
When asked if she thought he was expecting it, she explained: ‘No, because I didn’t think he had the guts if I’m honest. Because I didn’t think he was ready yet.’

Alexandra has two children – whose names she has not publicly revealed – with Darren, but became frustrated that he had not yet popped the question.
She said, “That’s not why it happened. We are two children, it’s not happening yet, he’s just not ready for it yet, he doesn’t have the guts, is what I say to my friends.
‘But deep in my heart I thought: please hurry up with this proposal, because I really want it to happen.
‘I’ve been working on this case for about a year and that’s probably why I thought it wasn’t happening. Because I thought I was putting too much pressure, to be honest.

Alexandra looked stunning in a green lace midi dress for the romantic proposal – with a table covered in flower petals behind it.
