"We'd been celebrating, Bec's gone to the toilet and I've heard cling, cling, cling... 'Oh no, Andy!'

"I get in there, and she has dropped the ring in the toilet," shared Andy. "She's looking at me and she goes, 'Don't flush it... stand back'."

"Now I see this ring for a short period of time feeling like I know where it's been, and that's why Bec said not to tell anyone," he laughed.

Andy revealed they were at his sister's place when Bec was "very excitedly" explaining their proposal story.

"It flung off, she felt it come off and we all watched in slow motion in the air," he recalled.

"Our dog [Henri] loves eating anything that hits the ground," said Andy.

"The ring hit the ground, it's jingling along and Fred, my nephew, slid in on his chest and beat Henri to grabbing the ring before the dog could."

Talk about a near miss!

"He's immediately Bec's favourite nephew because searching through Henri's poo's for a week would've been troublesome," he added.

Lee said he took Harding to their "new old house" under the guise they needed to film videos for social media before they start the build.

While standing in front of the old marble fireplace, Lee said he pretended he could see something inside the fireplace and went to take a look before producing a napkin, in a nod to how they met.

Posting a loved-up photo, showing off the ring, they wrote, "People keep saying we rushed into this, but we don't care what people say."
