Rebecca Adlington engaged and the ‘happiest ever’
SWIMMER Rebecca Adlington has taken the plunge and become engaged, she announced yesterday.
The former Olympic champion declared herself to be the “happiest person ever” after Harry Needs, a fellow swimmer, popped the question.
Adlington, 24, who announced her retirement from competitive swimming last month, told her Twitter followers: “Had the best weekend ever! Thank you @Harryneeds for making me the happiest person ever right now #engaged #I-said-‘yes’.”
She added that she had been celebrating with friends.
