Shane Warne’s daughter Brooke has announced her engagement.<\/p>\n

The eldest child of the late cricketing great revealed her long-term boyfriend Alex Heath had proposed on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Brooke shared a series of images of the proposal to Instagram, including her fianc\u00e9 getting down on one knee in a green pasture.<\/p>\n

In another picture, the newly engaged couple are seen sharing a passionate kiss against the backdrop of a sunset and a rainbow overhead.<\/p>\n

“It was always us,” Brooke captioned the post.<\/p>\n

Brooke’s mother, Simone Callahan, revealed the proposal included a touching tribute to the cricket legend as she shared her congratulations in the comments.<\/p>\n

“Truly a beautiful match made in Heaven, beyond Happy for you both, endless LOVE, and the rainbow. Dad’s sign for you Brookie and Alex, he will be over the moon celebrating, enjoy this special moment, can’t wait to squish you,” wrote Brooke’s mother.<\/p>\n

Brooke’s brother Jackson said: “Wowww I have a brother!”<\/p>\n

“Congratulations mate,” said former AFL star and radio presenter Brendan Fevola.<\/p>\n

\"Shane<\/p>\n

Brooke and Alex celebrated their sixth anniversary in September 2025.<\/p>\n

Last year, Shane\u2019s eldest daughter opened up on the devastating moment the family learned the legendary cricketer had died.<\/p>\n

Appearing on her brother Jackson\u2019s Warnes Way podcast, she shared agonising new details about that fateful day.<\/p>\n

Brooke explained she was spending the evening with her partner, brother, sister and their mum and was \u201chaving such a nice night\u201d when Jackson received the dreaded phone call from Shane\u2019s manager, Andrew Neophitou.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot for one minute did I think something had happened to Dad,\u201d Brooke confessed to her brother.<\/p>\n

\u201cI remember you hung up the phone and said, \u2018Dad\u2019s had a massive heart attack<\/a>\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"\u2018That\u2019s<\/p>\n

\u201cWe stood up, and I remember I couldn\u2019t breathe. I felt like I had this out-of-body experience, and I didn\u2019t think what was happening was happening.<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t breathe, Alex was blowing air into my face, and I was trying to get myself together. I felt a sense of disbelief.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brooke and her family then had to endure a two-and-a-half hour wait before it was confirmed that doctors\u2019 attempts to resuscitate Shane had been unsuccessful.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe started screaming. Summer collapsed, I couldn\u2019t breathe, Alex went outside. I had looked at you (Jackson) two minutes before and you had a feeling, you said to me, \u2018Something\u2019s wrong.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThat night, I remember it was raining, and I sat on that balcony and I screamed and I cried.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shane Warne’s daughter Brooke has announced her engagement.
