Pyjama proposal surprised Heidi

Heidi Range has said that she was surprised when her long-time boyfriend Dave Berry popped the question on New Year's Eve as she had no clue about it.

The Sugababe told OK! magazine: "We decided to have a relaxed evening drinking champagne... I was in my pyjamas putting the washing on while watching Love Actually and at five to midnight, I went to get my slippers to go on the roof terrace."

Dave, a TV presenter, added: "I ran into the kitchen, quickly got the ring out of my pocket, opened the box and got down on one knee."

He continued: "I wasn't prepared for Heidi being so long, though, so I had to keep changing knees because of the cramp!"

The couple, who have been dating for seven years, also revealed that they intend to walk down the aisle in October 2011.

Speaking of the wedding venue, Dave said: "It'll be in London, it's the best city in the world and it's where all our friends are. Everyone can have a great time and just get a taxi home."

Heidi said that she is looking forward to wear a Vera Wang gown for the big day, adding: "I've always dreamt of a Vera Wang wedding dress!"
