The couple's whirlwind romance began in the dazzling lights of Dubai earlier this year - and Ben, 52, has now taken his love story with Vanessa Brown, 29, to the next level.
She has since spoken of her heartache at the end of the relationship, while Ben apologised before hitting back, calling Vanessa's public reaction "in bad taste" and claiming she "stole the best years of my life".
PHATS & Small singer Ben Ofoedu is engaged to his new girlfriend after a very romantic proposal, The Sun can exclusively reveal.
Ben, who was previously engaged to broadcaster Vanessa Feltz, popped the question in the heart of New York City just before Valentine’s Day.
With a fresh blanket of snow covering the park, Ben dropped to one knee and asked Vanessa to marry him.
