Playing coy while giving a glimpse of the ring, the 41-year-old model – who has a son River, two, and is expecting her second child with Shaun - posted a pic of her hand with the rock on display.

“For goodness sake, can't a girl go for leisurely beach stroll without chipping a nail?! Well.. at least I had some nice rocks to look at,” she wrote.

“I know you're not supposed to remove shells and rocks from the beach and take them home with you, but I did find one rock that was pretty special and I just had to keep it.”

The model later thanked fans for their support, revealing the photo had been taken just a few moments the 29-year-old's “sweetest proposal”.

“The big fella even managed to effortlessly get down on one knee - not easy for a ruckman that's had five knee operations! He must REALLY love me!” joked Megan in a follow up post.

“But seriously, to my man, the amount of time, effort and energy you put into designing a ring for me was just beautiful.

“Honestly, just the proposal itself was the biggest and most important gesture you could've ever made and to involve our son was the most special part of all. And our little bump was there too which just made it all perfect.”
