Jesinta Campbell is clearly overjoyed at her recent proposal, but a friend close to the model reveals she had no idea that the man who swept her off her feet a year ago was about to propose to her last Saturday.

The model’s footballer beau, Lance “Buddy” Franklin, pulled out all the romantic stops the day he dropped to one knee, took her hand and presented her with an incredible 5 carat diamond ring.

Speechless with shock and joy, the former Miss Universe Australia admits all she could do was cry.

According to a friend of the couple, Jesinta must have been the only person surprised at all, with everyone who knows the “lovesick” couple apparently counting down the days.

“It caught her completely by surprise,” the source told Woman’s Day. “I think we’ve all known for months that it was only a matter of time.”

The wonderful romance between the beauty queen and AFL superstar has captivated the country, with Jesinta being credited as “taming” the badboy of the AFL.
