Michael appeared on Winter Love Island 2020
Tonight, he took to Instagram to share pictures from the big life moment along with a passage from Proverbs 16:3 that reads: “Commit to the Lord whatever you do and he will accomplish your plans.”
Michael has kept his relationship mostly private since going public with his wife-to-be last summer.
He appears to have asked for her hand in marriage by writing ‘will you marry me?’ on the dessert plate.
The couple embraced after she said yes, and in the final shot, the future Mrs Boateng shows off her diamond ring while holding a large bouquet of roses.
Michael’s friends congratulated the happy couple, with fellow Islander Biggs Chris writing: “Jheeeez congrats!!!”
Geordie Shore’s Nathan Henry said: “Congratulations [love heart emojis].”
Celebrity Big Brother legend Lateysha Grace said: “Awwwww congratulations to both of you xxx.”
First appearing on our screens during series six, Mike found himself in relationships with four different women during his time on the show.
Arriving as one of the original cast members, he was immediately paired with Leanne Amaning.
He was then stolen by bombshell Jess Gale, before reuniting with Leanne and spending two weeks with her.

He then linked up with Sophie Piper, before hooking up with Priscilla Anyabu, with whom he remained until they were eliminated as a couple on Day 41, just days before the final.
The couple stayed together for 15 months, before divorcing in July 2021.
In a chat on Capital XTRA, Mike said: “We’re not together anymore. It was never a bad breakup, actually it wasn’t a bad breakup at all, we just had a mature conversation.

“The lockdown was difficult for us, we didn’t really have a lot of space from each other, we had an adult conversation, as adults, saying that in order to save our friendship, maybe we need to take time as a couple,” he explained.
“You never know what’s going to happen in life, but for now, yes, Mike is single.”
Mike later returned to the franchise, appearing in the spin-off series, Love Island Games, last year.
He entered as a bombshell on Day 10 of the competition, partnering American Love Island star Imani Wheeler, ahead of British favorite Liberty Poole.
However, he did not last long and was kicked out just three days after entering the show.
