'H&A' actress engaged to sports star

Tessa James has got engaged to Nate Myles, it has been reported.

The 19-year-old Australian actress, who is best known for playing Nicole Franklin in soap opera Home and Away, apparently accepted 25-year-old National Rugby League star Myles's proposal in December.

According to New Idea magazine, Myles proposed with a 1.5-carat yellow diamond ring before the couple flew to Bali to celebrate their engagement.

James and Myles were allegedly introduced a year ago by her co-star Jodi Gordon, who is dating Sydney Roosters captain Braith Anasta.
