Inside Mabel’s top secret engagement party at star-studded bash in Mayfair
MABEL had a hit with the song Ring Ring in 2018 and now she’s got her own one of those.
I’ve learned the Don’t Call Me Up singer got engaged on Wednesday when her music executive boyfriend Preye Crooks got down on one knee.
Preye, who is the son of Spurs legend Garth, rented out the art gallery Colnaghi in London’s Mayfair and invited 70 of her friends and family to surprise her after popping the question.
In a snap from the party, she can be seen beaming with her pop star mum Neneh Cherry and music producer dad Cameron McVey, alongside Preye, Garth and his mum Funkazi.
Mabel’s cousin, broadcaster Miquita Oliver, was among the other guests at the celebration.
My source said: “Mabel is over the moon and has a gigantic diamond ring on her finger to show off.
“Preye had candles and rose petals everywhere to propose and after she said yes, their nearest and dearest came out to surprise her and celebrate.
“There was free-flowing champagne and she looked overjoyed.
“There were lots of happy tears.”
It has been a busy week for Mabel because I spotted her at the Wicked premiere on Monday and the following evening, she attended the launch of her mum’s audiobook A Thousand Threads.
The Sun was the first to reveal that Mabel, who wore a dusky pink dress for the proposal, had started dating Preye back in 2021.
Before that, she had sung about a bad ex on Don’t Call Me Up and her desire to find a man on the 2020 song Boyfriend.
She has been hard at work on new music this year and has released songs including Vitamins and Stupid Dumb.
One track, Chat, appeared to be about Preye as she sang: “You adore me, I adore ya.”
But something tells me her tunes are about to get a whole lot happier.
