Comedian Joel Creasey announces engagement to long-term underwear model boyfriend Jack Stratton-Smith: 'Love of my life'

Joel Creasey is set to become a married man.

The comedian announced his engagement to long-term boyfriend Jack Stratton-Smith with a joyous post to Instagram on Monday.

The couple cuddled up in a series of sweet images taken alongside a stunning water view.

The pair shared a kiss after Jack got down on one knee and presented a shocked Joel a ring, which was a chunky gold bauble with a dark stone.

'I'm engaged to my best friend and love of my life' the comedian wrote in his caption alongside the photos.

The loved-up couple were quickly congratulated by their celebrity friends.

'Ok, breathe (me). We've been training for this moment our whole lives. We need to get onto the Palace of Versailles stat for their avails. Congrats' wrote Em Rusciano .

'This is just the best news. All my love to you beauties' added Myf Warhurst with Jackie 'O' Henderson adding, 'Omg - this is so amazing! Congrats beautiful'.

Tim Blackwell chimed in with a gag: 'He went through with it while you were in that shirt? He must really love you'.

The radio host, 34, has been dating the actor and underwear model, 31, for seven years.

Joel previously admitted that the way wooed his handsome beau is hardly conventional.

During an interview with Today Extra , he confessed to 'stalking' his boyfriend for four years before they even met. 'I stalked him for four years on Instagram . Wore him down,' the Perth -raised funnyman boasted.

Host Sonia Kruger asked if he had contacted him through his direct messages, but Joel revealed his approach was 'creepier'.

'I saw he had tickets to the Adele concert and I was like "I guess like Adele too",' he quipped.

Co-host Richard Wilkins asked the Mardi Gras host how he managed to spot the model in a stadium of 100,000 people.

'My stalking knows no bounds, I lasered in on him,' he laughed.

Joel also revealed an awkward conversation he had with Jack early on in their relationship in an interview with The Project .

He explained: 'We have been dating for a year then maybe a month ago, he said "oh my god you commented on one of my photos four years ago."'

Embarrassed, the comedian said: 'Oh what did I write?'

He recalled Jack saying: 'You just wrote three of those eggplants emojis followed by a three water spurt emojis.'

Joel and Jack began dating in 2017.
