    According to the Daily Mail, Arterton and her fiancé held an engagement party over the weekend at the Sun & 13 Gantons brasserie in Soho along with friends and family.

    It was the 22nd James Bond film that first brought the two together. An unnamed source told Reveal magazine: ‘It’s so cute, they are really loved up and it’s great to see Gemma looking so happy. They met on the set of Quantum of Solace.’

    ‘He was Daniel Craig’s body double and there was clearly chemistry from the start. They’ve been together for a few months now and it’s going really well.’
