After reigning victorious, the stunner, who shares pet pug Dennis with her beau, stormed the red carpet at the NTAs, with Liam on one arm and an eye-popping ring on her left hand.
Seemingly intending to draw the eye to her blinged-up finger, she opted for a nude manicure on all but her ring finger which boasted a glossy gold colouring above her huge diamond jewel.
Speaking on the red carpet at the event, Liam said: 'Yes of course we are going to get married. We already have a pug together — that’s the ultimate sign of commitment. A number of our relatives have been having weddings lately, so the pressure is on.'

Hot on the heels of their romantic plans to tie the knot, insiders report to The Sun that Hello! magazine are eyeing the big money deal for inside shots of the wedding.
A source said: 'Candice is a huge star after Bake Off and people are fascinated with her life. Hello! has already approached the couple. It would easily cover all the costs so they could do something really special.
'But Candice is actually really normal and overwhelmed by the attention so hasn’t made any commitment.'

Shortly before Candice burst on to screens last year, The Sun revealed that one year before the couple met, Scottish-native Liam, was serving a 16-month jail term for dealing cannabis.
He was arrested after police caught him with £6,970 worth of cannabis in his car as he an accomplice drove from Edinburgh to Inverness in 2009. Mr Macaulay then admitted supplying cannabis.
Sources close to Candice insisted she had nothing to do with the crime committed by Liam as she was not dating him at the time.
