A very happy Christmas! Chelsea and Lionesses star Millie Bright announces festive engagement to partner Levi Crew

The proposal took place during a tropical Christmas holiday in Mauritius, and Millie took to Instagram to express her happiness, showcasing her beautiful engagement ring. In her Instagram post, Millie shared pictures from their holiday and wrote a heartfelt message, expressing her surprise and joy at the engagement.

Bright wrote a heartfelt caption which read: "Little did I think this would be the most beautiful Christmas in my entire life…

I said YES 💍😍 after the shock had settled and Levi reminded me yes or no😂 You was already my person but here’s to the future bubba🥂I love you💚"

The couple, who have been together since at least 2020, currently resides in England with their two French Bulldogs, Zeus and Hera. The pair was in a long-distance relationship during the Covid-19 pandemic, but Levi eventually moved to the UK, and the couple now shares a home in Surrey.

Millie has a tattoo on her left forearm, depicting Levi's eye and half a tiger.

"It's my partner's eye and half a tiger, my core strength with me through thick and thin," she previously told The Sun.

Bright can afford to take a break from action during the festive season and spend quality time with Crew as Chelsea will not be back in action until mid-January. However, games will keep coming thick and fast for Emma Hayes' troops after resumption starting with an FA Women's Cup fixture against West Ham on January 14 followed by a WASL and Champions League clash against Manchester United and Real Madrid on January 21 and 24, respectively.
