The couple posted pictures of themselves on the safari kissing with the caption: “05.06.24 I said YES to forever!!!”

The couple spent two weeks in Africa earlier this month visiting Tanzania to go on safari in the Serengeti before flying to Zanzibar for a luxury beach break.

It was while on the Serengeti that Jack proposed.

Before confirming their engagement, the loved-up couple have not been shy at sharing their romance.

They often post a slew of sweet selfies together from their various different adventures.

Before getting down on one knee in Africa, Jack first revealed his intentions to make Hanni his wife an astonishing four years ago.

The couple first met when Hanni worked for the soap in the press office. 

At first, whilst the pair only knew of each other to say “hello” too, an encounter at a wedding for a mutual friend sparked their romance.

Speaking to OK Magazine in 2020, Jack revealed: “Then our mutual friends got married and we were both guests at the wedding.

“We got chatting, I made Hanni laugh, we had a couple of drinks and we flirted. That was it.’

He also revealed back then that he fully intended to make Hanni his wife.

Jack confessed at the time: “We will get married but we’re not engaged yet. We want to do all those big milestones like marry, have kids and buy a house, we’re just not quite there yet.”

“I didn’t want to scare Hanni off but we did have the discussion about marriage and children early on, as you need to know you want the same things.”

Actor Jack has played hairdresser David in the soap for 24 years after joining as a child star in 2000.
