Bukayo Saka is reportedly engaged to his long-term girlfriend, Tolami Benson.

The England star is said to have asked the internet personality to marry him on a romantic date in a fancy London hotel, presenting her with an "enormous ring".


Despite rising to international fame, Saka has kept his personal life relatively private.

The pair are believed to have started dating back in 2020.

A source told The Sun: "Bukayo went all out for the proposal – and the ring he chose is absolutely enormous.

"He’d organised a special night at a top London hotel and proposed there.

"It was incredibly special and Tolami was totally blown away."

Their relationship became more publicly noticed during the 2022 World Cup.
