Billionaire Pretty Little Thing founder Umar Kamani has proposed to his glamorous girlfriend Nada Adelle.

Umar, 33, popped the question surrounded by hundreds of white roses and candles. The fashion mogul went Instagram official with his stunning girlfriend, 27, last year.

Nada has been featured in magazines such as Look Magazine and Harpers Bazaar.

She has also fronted a campaign for Beyonce’s Ivy Park brand campaign, and has worked with make-up brand L’Oreal. 

Umar, from Manchester, is the son of billionaire Boohoo founder Mahmud Kamani. 

In 2012, Umar and his brother Adam co-founded PrettyLittleThing after witnessing the phenomenal success of Boohoo. 

The Kamani family has a rags to riches back story, with Indian immigrant Mahmud managing to grow his market stall into a multi-billion pound business.

Mahmud’s father Abdullah moved the family to Kenya, where many Indian families had prospered under the British Empire.

Mahmud was born there in 1964, but four years later the Kamanis were forced to flee to Britain by increasing unrest and draconian employment laws that favoured native Kenyans.

They settled in Manchester, where the entrepreneurial Abdullah sold handbags on a market stall to feed his family, before investing in property and founding the wholesale textile business Pinstripe, where Mahmud worked, using family connections in India to source garments.

By the early 2000s, the firm was selling nearly £50 million of clothing a year to High Street names such as New Look, Primark and Philip Green’s Topshop.

Spotting the potential in the growth of the internet, Mahmud set up his online retailer in 2006 that would deliver their own-branded fashion at rock bottom prices, starting out with just three staff and operating out of a Manchester warehouse.

Today it has a workforce of more than 2,900, and celebrity advocates including everyone from Little Mix to Tallia Storm.
