Film couple Rosamund Pike and Joe Wright are engaged to be married, after the director proposed during a romantic break in Italy. The pair stopped off at Lake Como, on their way to the Venice Film Festival, where Wright asked Pike to be his wife.

The couple met on the set of 2005 film Pride And Prejudice, which Wright directed and Pike starred in. Wright announced the news to friends and family during a dinner in Venice.

The couple were greeted with applause after the film maker said, "I have asked Roz to be my wife she, thank God, said yes."

They will marry next year, after finishing pending film projects.
