Ashley Cole, a former footballer for Chelsea, gets engaged to his model girlfriend Sharon Canu.
Cole and Sharon shared the news on Instagram, with Sharon joking that it was the “easiest yes she’d ever spoken.”
Ashley, 41, shared a video of the couple kissing after the footballer knelt down on one knee in front of rose bouquets.
The actor, dressed in a grey suit and white shirt, wrapped his arms around his girlfriend, who kissed him on the lips.
Sharon, who looked stunning in a long brown gown, captioned the photo, “The simplest ‘yes’ I’ve ever uttered,” and tagged her beau.
Ashley, who was divorced from singer Cheryl 12 years ago, went on to repost the photograph to his own fans, tagging the model alongside a series of red heart emojis.
Sharon, who is the mother of Ashley’s two children, is believed to have met the footballer when he joined AS Roma in Italy back in 2014. The couple choose to keep their relationship extremely private, with Ashley often not featuring Sharon on his social media pages.
Sharon and Ashley became parents for the first time in February 2016 after months of speculation that Sharon was pregnant.
They never confirmed the birth and are yet to reveal their son’s name. The couple welcomed their second child in February 2018 – a little girl they called Grace. Ashley was previously married to pop singer Cheryl, then part of girl band “Girls Aloud”, after they tied the knot in a lavish wedding in 2006.
