Somerset farmer proposes by mowing ‘marry me’ into his field

Mr Heal told his girlfriend he would be working late on his tractor, and asked her to bring him some dinner. It was there the couple met at golden hour.

“I was doing what I’d normally do, just didn’t think anything of it,” Ms Morley said.

“I met him halfway down the track and he took me out to the field. I was just chatting away, telling him about my day, and then he stopped on the edge of the field.”

She said he asked her to get out of the car, which she thought was “a bit strange”.

“Then I looked behind him and saw the ‘marry me’ in the field, then it all clicked,” she said.

“I was in complete shock. I was shaking, I couldn’t even open the door.”
