DID you not think it was quite touching that Bolton’s Wanted pop star Tom Parker admitted to being “overcome with emotion” when he proposed to long-term girlfriend Kelsey Hardwick?

In an article in Hello! Magazine, he described how he went down on one knee in a carefully orchestrated marriage proposal that took three months to plan and which involved rose petals and a collage of pictures of their special moments together.

Maybe young men today are more in touch with their feelings, or prepared to show them. Either way, Tom’s words and the romantic efforts he made were particularly heartwarming.
