Frankie's huge diamond ring is the latest gift from her generous fiancé. Wayne presented his girlfriend with a £135,000 Aston Martin when she celebrated her birthday last year. The former Chelsea player has moved on following his split with French model Vanessa Perroncel, with whom he has a son, Jaydon Jean Claude.

Frankie and Wayne have made time for romance amid the singer's heavy work load. The sportsman helped his girlfriend celebrate when The Saturdays bagged their first ever number one single as What About Us went straight to the top of the charts. They were separated last year while Frankie filmed reality show Chasing the Saturdays in Los Angeles and New York. When they were briefly reunited during Wayne's visit, Frankie shared a picture titled "cozy bbq times." The cute snap showed the pair cuddling up on the sofa.
