Carr said he noticed something was wrong with his desert during a dinner at an exclusive resort in Lombok, but didn’t notice that Drayton had hidden a ring his food.

“There were nine couples in this boutique hotel and a man playing the organ.” Carr said.

“I went to the toilet and came out to eat dessert.

“And then I was like, ‘’Oh my God, a filling’s come out, just my luck on holiday.’

The Chatty Man soon found the ring hidden in his pudding and the organist launched into a rendition of Elton John’s Can You Feel The Love Tonight?

The couple live in London with two red setters named Bev and Joyce. Carr has said they have no plans to have children as looking after two dogs is hard enough.
