Britain's most fabulous divorcée is officially off the market.

Elizabeth Hurley's companion Shane Warne proposed to her at St Andrews in Scotland after a 10-month courtship.

The 42-year-old former Australian Test cricketer presented the glamorous brunette with an eye-popping sapphire said to be worth £50,000.

Elizabeth, 46, and her son Damian had been watching him take part in the Alfred Dunhill Links pro-am golf championship.

Organisers of the tournament said in a statement that he asked for her hand over a romantic meal before celebrating with guests and VIPs in the Old Course Hotel.

She confirmed the engagement on Saturday, tweeting: "Thanks for all your congratulations," and adding a picture of the couple about to go to dinner in St Andrews.

Her four-year marriage to businessman Arun Nayar ended in a divorce in the High Court in London in June.
