Her lyrics often feature lines of heartbreak and lost love, but it appears that Australian singer Jessica Mauboy may have to look elsewhere for inspiratio­n as her own romance has reached its crescendo, with boyfriend Themeli Magripilis finally popping the question in Greece!

A source close to the couple reveals the soccer player whisked the songbird off to his native homeland of Kalymnos, a remote island in Greece, where after getting the nod of approval from family, he finally popped the question.

It’s believed he proposed while they lounged under the sun alone on the island’s rugged Palionisos Beach.

Taking to Instagram, Themeli proudly photograph­ed his new fiancee showcasing a huge sparkler on her wedding finger. “My paradise!” he captioned.

‘She hoped Greece would be where he would pop the question’

Their close friends were quick to flood the post with their well-wishes. “Congratula­tions to you both. Well done Themeli. So happy for you,” one friend wrote.

Jess is reportedly over the moon with the engagement, with the source revealing she had hoped Greece would be the location “where her great love would finally pop the question”.

She was later spotted out the front of a famous Greek bridal store in the port town of Pothia.

While Jess always knew she wanted to get engaged in Greece, deciding on the location of their wedding ceremony will be tricky.

“Jess will be torn about where to actually tie the knot,” says the insider. “She is so proud of her Northern Territory roots and heritage, and she has a huge family, so logistical­ly it would be hard getting them all to Greece.”

Jessica has publicly stated in the past she “knew” the pair were going to get married and have children in the future. “He’s a God-given gift,” she said.

 ??  ?? “He has such a great soul,” Jessica says about her long-time love. Themeli has been dating the songstress for more than 10 years.
