Late singer Liam Payne’s former girlfriend Sophia Smith got engaged to James Bridgwood, just two months after his untimely death.
On social media, Smith shared a charming black-and-white video of the proposal, showing her and her new fiancé wearing pajamas with daughter Angelina Grace and lying on a floor filled with rose petals with a bottle of prosecco.
After being proposed, the 30-year-old influencer looked astounded and grinned broadly as Bridgwood placed the ring on her finger.
“Yes a million times over ❤️💍 25.12.24,” she captioned the video accompanied by a red heart emoji.
