Gaz Beadle engaged

Gaz Beadle has got engaged.
The former ‘Geordie Shore’ star is set to wed Emma McVey – who is pregnant with his second child – after popping the question recently.
Gaz shared a photo of himself kissing Emma as she showed off her ring on his Instagram account and wrote: "SHE SAID YES [ring emoji] (sic)"
Emma shared the same photo on her own account and wrote: "We have a crazy, exciting couple of years on the way.."
The 31-year-old reality star – who already has 21-month-old son Chester with Emma – recently claimed he is now "basically retired" and has stopped partying.
He said: "We’re too old to party as much as we used to. We’ve realised there’s more to life than all of that.
"I’m basically retired. People think I’m Gaz who wants to get p***ed all the time. But I’m more likely to be in the queue for soft play than a clu b these days. I’ve only had one night out this year and I was home by 1am."
Gaz admitted becoming a dad has proven to be a turning point in his life, and he’s thankful not to be on TV anymore.
He said: "I used to go out 300 nights a year.
"I was filming the show and after each series I’d do 60 club appearances. I was knackered and I didn’t really have a life.
"Then I took a year out to be a dad. I was offered TV shows and turned them down. I thought, ‘I don’t want to do the whole celebrity thing anymore, go and get f***ed’.
"I wanted to be a dad. Being out of the TV bubble’s been amazing."
