Yahoo News The Repair Shop's Jay Blades announces engagement with special self-made ring
The Repair Shop's Jay Blades has announced his engagement to fiancée Lisa-Marie Zbozen, revealing that her ring is extra special as he created it himself in collaboration with his co-star Richard Talman.
On his Instagram, he shared a photograph of Zbozen showing off her ring and a tattoo of the word 'Love' on her finger, as well as a picture of the pair on a sunny beach together.
"Good afternoon all, Lunchtime Treat," Jay wrote. "It gives me great pleasure to announce that I got engaged to @lisamariezbozen.

"We wanted to share this news with you as we are very happy & hope to bring the same happiness your way. Ring designed by me & made by @rtfj."
Plenty of Jay's famous friends and fans wrote messages of congratulations, including Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Strictly Come Dancing's Luba Mushtuk and BBC Breakfast and I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Louise Minchin.
Earlier this year, fellow The Repair Shop star Will Kirk tied this knot with his own fiancée, with their big day having been delayed from 2020 due to the pandemic. Multiple Repair Shop co-stars attended the ceremony, while Talman once again worked on the ring.
"The best day of my life. Thank you to all who attended and to those that helped to make it happen," he wrote at the time. "I was lucky enough to have some of the Repair Shop family there to celebrate my wedding day. Aren't they a smart bunch."
Jay will be taking part in this year's Strictly Come Dancing festive special, airing tomorrow (Christmas Day). He'll be dancing an Only Fools and Horses-themed routine with Luba.
The Repair Shop airs its 2021 Christmas special tonight (December 24) at 7pm on BBC One. You can also see Jay in the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special, airing tomorrow (December 25) at 5.10pm.
