Former MAFS<\/a> groom Mick Gould<\/a> has revealed he is engaged to partner Jean Boyd, coincidentally just a day after his former on-screen wife<\/a> hard launched her new relationship.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did a thing and bought a thing. Soon to be Mr and Mrs Gould. Love ya darl,\u201d Mick, 38, shared, alongside a photo of the moment he got down on one knee.<\/p>\n

A wonderfully laid-back proposal!\u00a0Instagram\/@mick_gould86<\/p>\n

Mick surprised his fiancee during the pre-settlement inspection of a property they recently purchased.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe farmer finds a wife! Or something like that. Congrats!\u201d said season three bride Bella Frizza.<\/p>\n

\u201cCongrats on finding your person \u2013 you had an infectious personality on MAFS and you, of all the people on it during the years, deserved to find your special someone,\u201d said another follower. <\/p>\n

\u201cI hope your house is filled with laughter and love always \u2013 awesome news.\u201d<\/p>\n

The bride-to-be celebrated too, sharing her own post that read: \u201cSo it\u2019s going to be forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple\u2019s real estate agent captured the humorous moment Mick tricked Jean before proposing.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoly s–t, what is that?\u201d he pointed in the distance, getting on his knee while she turned around confused.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere doll, I got you something,\u201d he then said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat do you reckon, Jean Fae Boyd? Should we change it to a Gould or what?\u201d<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, Jean said yes.<\/p>\n

\"MAFS<\/p>\n

They\u2019re getting married!\u00a0Instagram\/@mick_gould86<\/p>\n

It was a sweet happy ending for the former TV groom, whose time in the experiment was far from smooth sailing.<\/p>\n

Mick was paired with Jessika Power<\/a>, 33, during 2019\u2019s season 6, who famously chose to stay in the experiment so she could pursue an affair with another groom, Dan Webb<\/a>, behind her husband\u2019s back.<\/p>\n

\"MAFS<\/p>\n

Jess and Dan\u2019s affair finally came out on the Commitment Ceremony couch.\u00a0Nine<\/p>\n

Just a day before Mick\u2019s proposal was revealed, Jess shared a lengthy tribute to new partner Liam Neilson on Instagram.<\/p>\n

Jess said there had been \u201cno games, no wondering where you stand, no trying to shrink yourself to make someone else comfortable,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust laughter, support, endless banter and someone who makes even the most ordinary moments feel like my favourite part of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jess hard launched her relationship this week as well.\u00a0Instagram\/@jessika_power<\/p>\n

Jess\u2019 post featured a video of the loved-up pair talking and kissing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you @jamieneilson__ for reminding me that the healthiest relationships don\u2019t have to be the hardest ones. Thank you for making me laugh until my stomach hurts, for believing in me, and for being exactly who you are,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
