One of ITV's Chasers, Paul Sinha, announced he is engaged to his boyfriend after getting down on one knee.

The 48-year-old quiz master announced his happy news on Twitter last night, and fans were thrilled for the couple.

Paul tweeted: "I proposed today. He said yes. Thus starts yet another diet."

The subtle announcement received hundreds of well-wishes from his overjoyed followers.

One user wrote: "Congratulations Paul - very happy for you! No diet required - you looked great when I saw you a couple of weeks ago! Wishing you all the happiness in the world."

Another added: "The chaser has been caught! Congratulations Paul!"

"Congratulations! Please say there's going to be a quiz at the wedding?" a third asked.

The comedian has been praised in the past for openly referring to his sexuality on the ITV quiz show.

In May 2017, Paul openly joked about 'not giving one of his boyfriends enough attention' during a conversation with one of the contestants.

The identity of Paul's lucky fiancé remains a mystery for now.

However, Paul once revealed on the show that he had been in a 'quizzing power couple' with a man named Oliver since 2016.

Paul told GuysLikeU: "I am happy with a boyfriend. We are in an open relationship, but can't say more than that.

"One of the advantages of being gay is that there is no traditional template for how you are meant to engage with your partner.

"Hetero relationships are supposedly based on the idea of procreation and offering a loving environment for your children, therefore by definition would mean monogamy. Being gay we can make our own template that works for us."

"I assumed everyone knew I was gay. I have been on the show six years and I have made lots of references to being gay. But they mysteriously never made the edit.

"There was one time that did make the edit when I was asked how many pieces was there to a bikini. Now you couldn't ask a question more simple and out of my comfort zone. But I got it wrong.

"Bradley looked at me at the end and said: 'Bikini?' And I said 'that question would fall to the only Chaser whose lifestyle choices means I don't get to see a bikini'.

"So that was me coming out of the closet. I had gay on my Twitter feed for years."
