Jools Oliver confirmed the engagement, stating, "Our first baby Poppy Honey is getting married. We are so excited, proud and happy. Ben we all adore you."
This declaration accompanied a video depicting the family celebrating with balloons in their kitchen.
The couple met during their university years, having moved in next door to each other.
Jools Oliver claims Ben seemed very distracted when Poppy was moving into her second house at university, while she was assembling a shoe rack.
Little did I know as we moved Pop into her second house at university, whilst I was sweating over your shoe rack flat pack, you seemed very distracted with the boy who had just moved in next door. Five years later you had met your soul mate. So excited for the next chapter.
Jamie Oliver's mother also expressed her delight, saying, "Love this so much, it was such wonderful news, made me cry. Love them both."
Jamie Oliver and his wife Jools have been married for 26 years.
Jamie Oliver claims Poppy surprised Jools upon her return from months of travel with Ben.
