Creasey revealed live on the Ricki-Lee, Tim and Joel show that Stratton-Smith had popped the question on the final night of their recent holiday in Italy.
“Well, you asked what happened on my trip to Italy,” Creasey said to co-hosts Joel Blackwell. “I did get engaged to the love of my life after seven-and-a-half years! He finally popped the question.”
“It was very last minute… it was the day before we left actually, and it was just on a little rooftop. We just had a couple of friends there, and I had no idea. We had many a drink that night and it was very special.”
Creasey also joked about how long he and Stratton-Smith have been in a relationship for: “We’ve been together for ages, a lot of people have been like ‘I thought you were already married!’”
On his Instagram, Creasey posted pictures from the special night which shows off the Wicked-inspired engagement ring.
