MARRIED At First Sight groom Caspar Todd has revealed he is engaged - six months after splitting with his telly bride.

Caspar courted controversy on the E4 show when he was accused of 'bodyshaming' his TV wife Emma Barnes.

While the pair split and left the experiment - with their final scenes airing in October - farmer Caspar has since found new love and revealed on social media that he has popped the question.

Caspar captured the moment he got down on one knee on video and shared it on his social media.

“Will you marry me?” he asks, before putting his hand on her knee and saying, “I love you.”

His girlfriend, who Caspar has not named, nods and covers her mouth in shock as cheers break out across the room.

Caspar wrote in his caption:"I've known for a long time that you are my person. Thank you for being you, finding me, and saying yes eventually. A huge thank you to @lynmouthshantycrew for making the night so special. Can't believe I've got a fiancee!!!!"

Soon after posting his news, he was congratulated by some of his former cast mates.

"Congratulations, there is hope for me and Adam," wrote co-star Orson Nurse.

"Wicked man ! happy for you," weighed in fellow groom Adam Nightingale.

 

Caspar went public with his new girlfriend at the start at the year, revealing they had begun dating in 2024 and she was moving in with him.

Sharing the picture to Instagram, he told fans: "Who knew 2024 would find me the love of my life?

"So happy to have you in my life and moving in to live with me next month. Happy new year, 2025 is looking amazing."

It's a stark contrast to how Caspar appeared on the TV marriage experiment.

After being matched with fan favourite Emma, he crushed her when he told her he wasn't attracted to curvy women.

Before telling her that he does not find her "sexy", Caspar brutally said: "I've rarely gone for the curvier person."

When asked if he fancies her, Caspar brutally added: "Not currently no, let's be honest."

The exchange left Emma in tears.

Over several weeks, the pair attempted to work on their chemistry but it failed to materialise and they called it quits before the end of the series.
