Singer Ed Sheeran played a big role in the touching proposal of his friend Jake Roche of Rixton and his girlfriend Jesy Nelson of Little Mix.

Sheeran, 24, was performing at Manchester Arena on July 19 when he invited Jake to come on stage with Jesy, reported Ace Showbiz.

Jake shared a photo of him kneeling down to pop up the question to Jesy with Sheeran holding his guitar behind the couple.

He captioned it, "A year ago today I met her at Manchester arena, so it was only right, with a little help from my friend, that this happened. Best day of my life."
 

Jesy reposted the picture on Little Mix's Instagram account along with caption, "I cannot believe what has just happened! The most surreal moment of my life and everyone that I love most was there to share it with us! I feel like the luckiest girl in the world rite now literally cannot stop crying! Future Mrs Roche."

Jake thanked Sheeran on Twitter, writing, "Travelled 5 hours to sing our favourite song on his day off. I will never ever be able to repay you. Love you pal. @edsheeran." The "Photograph" singer then replied, "@Jake_Rixton my absolute pleasure. Thanks for the KFC.
