Orlando Bloom pops the question

Orlando Bloom has proposed to girlfriend Kate Bosworth - and presented her with a £175,000 diamond engagement ring.

The dazzling five-carat rock is set in a platinum and pave-set diamond band, says the News of the World.

Bosworth told a friend: "All you see is diamonds. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen."

The paper says Bloom, star of Lord of the Rings, was advised to keep his engagement quiet to avoid upsetting his millions of female fans.

But the News of the World says the couple are making plans to wed as early as next June.

The friend said: "Kate jumped at Orlando's proposal and accepted in a second. They're making plans for two ceremonies - one in Los Angeles, where Kate is from, and one in Orlando's native England."

Kate wants to hold the LA reception at the Hotel Bel-Air in Beverly Hills and another in a country estate outside London.

The 21-year-old, who met Orlando in January 2003 when they were both appearing in a Gap advert, has already started shopping for her wedding gown.

But she agreed to refrain from wearing her ring until they are ready to formally announce their engagement.

And
my hair's all short now.
