Danielle Bux shows off her favourite thing... her diamond engagement ring

Danielle Bux, the fiancée of former England star Gary Lineker, hit the town last night with a girl's favourite accessory - her sparkling engagement ring.

Wearing a strapless purple minidress, and black patent Christian Louboutin shoes, Danielle looked radiant days after it was revealed she is set to wed the 47-year-old Match of the Day presenter after a year-long romance.

The 29-year-old former air hostess was smiling broadly as she posed at the after-party following the premiere for film Tropic Thunder.

Mother of one Danielle has broken her silence on her relationship with Lineker, and has finally revealed just what attracted her to the star, who is 18 years older than her.

She told The Daily Star: 'I was surprised at home much younger and more handsome he looked in the flesh he looked than on TV. I thought he was lovely. '

Lineker has already moved into a new six-bedroom mansion which is less than half a mile from his old bachelor pad.

And the couple are said to be planning a Christmas wedding.

A source confirmed: 'They've talked about a Christmas wedding and Dani thinks it would be incredibly romantic.

'They're just trying to plan the finer details now to see if it could work.'

Danielle and Lineker will share their plush home with her daughter - by ex-Coventry City player Adam Willis - Ella, 6.

The couple met on a blind date after being set up by a mutual friend last year. And soon enjoyed a string of holidays in exotic locations including Europe and Barbados.

Since starting her relationship with Lineker, Danielle has landed a contract with lingerie company La Senza.

The former Virgin Air stewardess said: 'The approach from La Senza came out of the blue but the pictures have turned out to be fantastic.

'The range is really gorgeous and I love showing off the sets to my boyfriend.'

Gary, the face of Walker's crisps, was divorced from his wife Michelle two years ago.

They have four sons together, George, 16, Harry, 14, Tobias, 12, and Angus, 10.
