The Eighties pop singer took to his Instagram to share a loved-up photo of himself and his fiancée.

Captioning the sweet snap, he wrote: ‘Lorna said Yes! We are both so happy and both looking forward to a wonderful future together’. 

Lorna also took to her own Instagram to share another smitten shot of the couple, writing: ‘My world, my love, my everything, 5 years of joy, I could not love anyone more’.

The Love of the Common People hitmaker’s wedding comes six years after he lost his wife to cancer.

Stacey, who appeared in the video for Paul’s second single Come Back And Stay in 1983, died aged 52 in January 2018 following a two-year battle with brain cancer. 

The couple tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in 1987 and shared three children together, Levi, 36, Layla, 29, and son Grady Cole, 27.

While the couple didn’t divorce, they did split in 2006; Stacey welcomed her fourth child Jude, 12, with Israeli businessman Ilan Slazenger during that time.

However, Stacey and Paul decided to give their love a second chance when they reconciled in 2013, with the rocker becoming a stepdad to Jude.

While the thrilled couple were showered with confetti, Lorna and Paul struggled to hide their laughter as stray petals landed in their eyes 

In 2019, Paul confessed his home felt ’empty’ without his late wife Stacey as he grieved for her death

Stacey received her diagnosis when she and Paul had been married for 30 years; the same year that the musician turned 60. 

She tragically passed away two years later, with Paul announcing on Twitter: ‘Sadly Stacey has passed away today after a two year fight with brain cancer.

‘She died peacefully at our home surrounded by family, friends and her four children Levi, Layla, Grady and Jude.’

Speaking about her death on This Morning in 2018, Paul said: ‘We just made the best of it for those two years. And as a family, we agreed that we [he and his children] wanted to get working and do something positive.

‘That’s what she was proudest of. She was really happy for me when things started to pick up again. [We are a close family] we see each other all the time.

‘When she first got ill, we all said we’d cut out sugar, because it aggravates cancer, so we did that as a show of solidarity really with Stacey.’

In 2019, Paul confessed his home feels ’empty’ without his late wife Stacey as he grieved for her death.

While insisting he was coping well with her death, Paul got emotional as he revealed he initially ‘put off’ grieving by keeping busy with the tour. 

He said: ‘I thought it [doing the tour] might be putting things off, when I go home it feels empty but you get used to it again.’

Paul noted seeing his ‘close knit family’ on a ‘regular basis’ has been one of the best strategies for coping with his wife’s death. 

He said: ‘[I’ve been] coping good. We’re a close knit family, we see each other on a regular basis.’
