Actor Rupert Friend is said to have popped the question to his girlfriend, Paralympic athlete Aimee Mullins.

The news was apparently leaked at the L’Oréal Paris Women of Worth Awards on Tuesday evening when the host of the event gave Aimee, who was on presenting duties, a special shout-out during her introduction.

A source told People: “It was really sweet because Aimee was tight-lipped about it earlier in the night, not wanting to take attention from the honourees.”

They added that the pair put on a loved-up display: “He was very doting the whole night, pulling out her chair, opening the car door. They were really adorable, just enjoying the night and each other’s company.”

Rupert, who used to date Kiera Knightley, is best known for his roles in Pride & Prejudice and Homeland.
