Congrats.

Josh Duhamel has announced his engagement to model girlfriend Audra Mari in the most romantic way, and we were just as surprised as anyone to see who was first to congratulate the actor.

The 49 year old got down on one knee on the beach with a message in a bottle revealing the big question on Audra’s 28th birthday.

Black Eyed Peas singer and Josh’s ex wife of eight years was the first to send her congratulations to the newly engaged couple.

Posting a snap on Instagram of the pair on a sunny beach, they held up a note that read: Audra Mari will you marry me?”

He captioned the post: “It’s on!! She found a message in a bottle that washed ashore and said YES!! @audramari.”

While there was an abundance of famous faces rushing to congratulate the actor, Fergie was among them simply saying “Congrats!!!” with a few heart emojis following.
