HOLLYWOOD, Calif. – Singer KT Tunstall received an extra special Christmas gift this year — a proposal from her boyfriend.
The singer revealed on her Web site how her boyfriend, Luke Bullen, surprised her by turning up at her adoptive parents’ home to pop the question.
Bullen, a drummer who plays in Tunstall’s backing band, called her on Christmas Eve claiming to be with friends in Norwich. But he was actually in a bar in Edinburgh with Tunstall’s brother and appeared at her parents’ home in St. Andrews the following morning.
The 32-year-old Tunstall said: “So, 11 o’clock on Christmas morning, the doorbell goes and it’s Luke suited and booted. With all his bags. And a little box. Wrapped with a ribbon. He proposed!”
She added: “Being an opportunist, I obviously said yes! It feels smashing. Keep an eye out for a little sparkle as I’m playing those chords.”
Tunstall revealed that her 34-year-old fiancé secretly visited her parents a month earlier so he could ask for their permission
The couple has plans to marry later this year.
