Kendal posted photos from the special moment on Instagram, writing: "10.05.25 🤍 YES YES YES to the love of my life!"
Her followers rushed to congratulate them, with Love Island winner Jess Harding writing: "Awww congratulations this is so beautiful!"
It comes after Kendal, 32, gave birth to their son in March last year, and the star added on her Instagram Story: "How did I get so lucky?"
Kendall appeared on Love Island in 2018 after having her heart broken by ex-fiance Michael Clark, who dumped her just three months after proposing.
The former beauty queen, from Blackpool, was with "soulmate" Michael for five years before he popped the question.

Celebrity SAS' Troy Deeney kicked 'defenceless' student in the head as life unravelled
Celebrity SAS' Troy Deeney kicked 'defenceless' student in the head as life unravelled The former striker is among the final six contestants of the Channel 4 show Former Birmingham City captain Troy Deeney now works as a pundit (Image: Bradley Collyer/PA Wire.) Hit Channel 4 show 'Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins' is approaching its finale, with the list of contestants now whittled down to just six. Two more participants, Lady Leshurr and Rebecca Loos, handed their numbers in during the most recent episode, with the finishing line now in sight for those still in the process. Among the final six is former footballer Troy Deeney, who has relished the challenge from day one of the series. "I'm at a crossroads in my life, so I'm hoping the course can highlight the good and bad in me and hopefully we'll see at the end, that the good outweighs the bad," he said previously. "I'm sure the DS will get me irritated very quickly but they will also know how to nurture and to reshape and probably help me along the way." Boxer Conor Benn, Drag Race UK star Bimini, singer Lucy Spraggan, Love Island contestant Adam Collard and Michaella McCollum, who was one of the infamous 'Peru Two', are the other names still left in. Article continues below Deeney was known as a bruising presence on the football pitch, and was sometimes just as tempestuous in his private life. In 2012, after finishing his second season with Watford as their top goal-scorer, he was sentenced to 10 months in prison for kicking a man's head and breaking his jaw during a brawl on a night out. A 30-second CCTV clip played in court showed Deeney kicking out at a "defenceless" group of students outside a Birmingham nightclub, one of whom received repeated blows to the head as he lay injured. "My dad was diagnosed with cancer of the oesophagus in February 2012, and finding that out really messed me up,' Deeney once recounted to The Guardian. "I went out for a friend's birthday not long after. I was angry and hurt and excessively drinking, and I was running around with people who weren't friendly. I got into a fight, which never should have happened. "I then got arrested and while the legal process was happening, I was losing my dad at the same time. My dad died in May, we buried him in June and it was three days after the funeral that I went to jail." It's an incident he said he regretted "massively". "Within five months I went from feeling like I was king of the world, playing football, making money and having all my friends love me, to going straight to jail," he said. The grief of losing his father has clearly affected the former striker, who previously admitted it's something he may never get over. Article continues below 'I woke up just yesterday and wanted to call my dad and have a chat with him," he said previously. "I should have done more for him; I could have taken him away from his life and shown him there was more to the world. "My dad was the strongest, fittest man I've ever met and if he died then, that only gives me, like, 15 years. If that's the case, I need to do something substantial to leave my mark on the world, so when people talk about me, it's not just: 'Troy the footballer.''

More than 14,000 Love Island complaints rejected by Ofcom
Ofcom received 14,167 complaints about the ITV reality series, including 24 about spin-off show Love Island: Unseen Bits, with the highest number of complaints coming on July 24, which saw 3,549 complaints relating to alleged bullying behaviour towards contestant Shakira Khan. Other complaints related to further alleged bullying of Khan, as well as fellow contestants Toni Laites, Yasmin Pettet, Meg Moore and Helena Ford, concern over contestants' mental health throughout the series, and Dejon Noel-Williams's behaviour towards Moore. Further complaints were made about the show's producers bringing contestant Megan Forte Clarke back onto the programme after she was dumped from the villa, and alleged race and gender based discrimination. An Ofcom spokesperson said: 'We carefully assessed the complaints we received about this series of Love Island. 'We recognise that emotionally charged or confrontational scenes can upset some viewers. But, in our view, negative behaviour in the villa was not shown in a positive light, and contestants were seen supporting or apologising to each other. 'We also took into account that the format of this reality show is well-established, and viewers would expect to see highs and lows as relationships and friendships are tested.' Love Island's 12th series ran from June 9 to August 4 and was won by Laites and Cach Mercer, while Khan and Harry Cooksley finished as runners-up. The show is presented by Maya Jama and sees contestants move into the show's villa in an attempt to find love and win a £50,000 prize pot. Previous Love Island winners have included Ekin-Su Culculoglu and Davide Sanclimenti, Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer, and Kem Cetinay and Amber Davies, who have since split up. Couples who, despite not winning, remain together include Olivia Buckland and Alex Bowen, Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury and Dami Hope and Indiyah Polack ITV declined to comment on the complaints.

Molly-Mae Hague shares parenting struggle after Bambi biting incident
Molly-Mae Hague has turned to fans and ChatGPT for help with parenting her two-year-old daughter Bambi in her latest YouTube vlog Molly-Mae Hague has slammed 'gentle parenting' after revealing her two-year-old daughter Bambi has been biting other children at nursery. The influencer and former Love Island star opened up on her latest parenting struggles in a vlog on her YouTube channel, and said that Bambi - who she shares with partner Tommy Fury - had also been bitten herself. Describing it as a 'biting pandemic', the 26-year-old shared she had even turned to ChatGPT for help after the nursery didn't discipline Bambi over the incident - and that she was now debating whether to take Bambi for ice cream, as she didn't want to 'reward bad behaviour.' In a candid chat to fans, Molly-Mae declared 'it's the complete opposite of what I want my child to be' - and said she wasn't sure if how the nursery dealt with it was the right approach. Explaining in more detail what happened, Molly-Mae told her two million subscribers: 'She's [Bambi] bit another child at nursery today. I know that's sad to come on here and admit. A lot of parents probably wouldn't want to admit that their child has done that. She continued: "But the only reason I feel slightly better about it is because I had a call last week saying that Bambi had been bitten - and all the children seem at the minute to be biting one another. "One of my good friends, her daughter is in the same class. And her daughter has been bitten like every day this week. It's really, really sad, it's horrible. "It's so confusing, because if we talk to her about it when we put her in the car, are we giving her the attention that she wants from the biting? But 100 per cent, if I was watching this video right now I'd be thinking no, you need to tell her it's not okay. Because it's not okay." Molly-Mae went on to confess: "It's so embarrassing for me, because it's the complete opposite of what I want my child to be. Literally, all I want her to be in this life is kind, gentle, caring, loving and just like so lovely to the people around her. That's what I want her to be to her core. "And her biting is just so far removed from who I want her to be. Equally, she is two and a half and she is testing boundaries. "Also, it's hard because at their nursery their way of disciplining is that they don't really discipline. They have very much a gentle parenting approach. On the accident report form that I got about the bite. They were like we've told her that her mouth is for chewing and for eating her food, for biting down on food, and nothing else. But is that really teaching? "I think that she knows [in] the environment she's in she is not going to get told off, there's not going to be an issue when she does bite. She's not going to have anything taken off of her, or put on a naughty step - or really be told no. "But, then is that the right approach? Because clearly whatever is going on now isn't working because it is the second time now that it's happened." Molly-Mae shared that until recently, she didn't know the nursery wasn't allowed to discipline children and said: "I always thought that if Bambi was doing something wrong like she'd be told. I'm absolutely fine for someone to tell my daughter that she's done something incorrect." She added: "So I don't know, I'm a bit stuck on this one. Probably going to get some comments. I don't know what the right thing is to do? I asked ChatGPT for some advice. I know people will probably have something to say about this." And fans were quick to comment underneath, with many praising Molly-Mae for her honesty about being a mum. One wrote: "Molly, I LOVE your open honesty with parenting it makes me feel like I'm not the only one struggling at times so thank you." Another commented: "Your realness surrounding motherhood and parenting is so so comforting." A third posted: "As a fellow mama to littles, thank you for being so honest and relatable. You are the only YouTuber I can relate to on so many levels especially your thoughts on parenting! Thank you for being real!!" While another fan, who said she works in a nursery, had this advice: "As someone who works in a nursery, you definitely need to speak to Bambi so she knows you are sad and what she's done is not okay. "We talk about 'using our words' if you are frustrated. Maybe introduce some books about feelings so she can begin to get more of an understanding of the feelings that are going on in her body! "Then when she's frustrated or upset there are other ways to get that feeling out! And I agree missing out on nice things is also an option - 'You were unkind, show me that you can be kind and we will have a treat another day.'"
