Carroll, who has been dating the former TOWIE star since last summer, popped the question on Sunday before touching back down in the capital the following evening. The 25-year-old, who could make his long-awaited return to the West Ham squad for this weekend's match against Aston Villa, was pictured with his new fiancee as the pair set off from the airport in the Italian capital.
