Hamish Gaman, 36, has revealed the happy news that he is engaged to his girlfriend of four years, Amelia Humfress. The Dancing on Ice 2020 professional skater gushed about the news, telling Hello! magazine: “We’re so incredibly happy and excited.”
Hamish went on to reveal his split with his former Dancing on Ice partner Caprice Bourret in January prompted him to get down on one knee sooner than he had originally planned.
The skater and the businesswoman parted ways in the ITV reality show after they reportedly fell out.
Explaining his decision to propose, Hamish added: “I’ve known for a long time that I want to spend the rest of my life with Amelia.
“But what I’ve been through made me keen to make that commitment to her sooner than we’d anticipated.”

“I’m comforted knowing the truth always comes out in the end, and I hope we can focus on the skating again now.”
Caprice and Hamish’s split was previously announced by Dancing on Ice hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.
The duo said on the ITV show: “Unfortunately Caprice and Hamish have parted ways and will not be skating this week.
“As you saw in our opening number, Hamish remains very much part of our professional team and we hope to have Caprice back on the ice next week.”
Caprice has since quit the show and opened up about how the issue impacted her mental health.
In an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk, she said: “I went into a spiral.
“My mental health was compromised, in 48 years I had never been in that position.
“I didn’t want to talk about it at first because I felt a lot of shame. I actually got people to help me, I took on a counselling psychologist and a doctor,” she added.
Dancing on Ice airs tonight at 6pm on ITV.
