Sharing his romantic proposal with HELLO! magazine, Beresford recalled: “I took Imogen for a walk along the beach.
“The weather was sunny and warm, and the sea was crystal clear. ‘This is it,’ I thought.
“Imogen’s not one for taking photos, but as I persuaded her to pose for a picture overlooking the sea, I kneeled down to take the engagement ring I’d hidden inside my rucksack.
“When she turned around, I was on one knee, and asked her the biggest question of my life – and she said yes. It was an amazing moment.”
