Emma Roberts has two reasons to celebrate. Not only has her new film Space Cadet topped the charts, but she is also engaged to her actor boyfriend Cody John.

Flashing her new diamond ring in an Instagram post, the 33-year-old actress told followers she had accepted her actor beau's proposal, writing: "Putting this here before my mom tells everyone." Emma, the niece of fellow actress Julia Roberts, and Cody have been dating for nearly two years, but have largely kept their relationship private.

"I never want to talk about relationships I'm in or that are ending or have ended," she once said.

"It's hard enough to be with someone by yourself, let alone with an audience." She is, however, happy to talk about Prime Video's Space Cadet, in which she reaches new heights. Emma portrays Florida party girl Rex, whose childhood dream of becoming an astronaut looks to be coming true when a mistake gets her a place on the Nasa space training programme.

Emma knew the part was for her straight away.
