April 20th, 2012 - St James's Palace | Engagement Interview
The couple enter the room with smiles etched across their faces while sharing a moment of laughter before being greeted by Tom Bradby of ITV News, who will be leading the interview today.
"Your Royal Highness, Miss Nolan, congratulations on the engagement. It's a pleasure to meet the both of you, and I thank you for your time today." Tom says this while shaking both Christian and Madison's hands.
"No problem, Tom. Thank you for being here." Christian replies, and they all get situated in their seats, with Tom sitting in an armchair across from the couple, while Christian and Madison sit on a couch also across from Tom.
Last-minute camera and lighting adjustments were made, and then the interview started:

Christian in normal styleTom: "Your Royal Highness, Miss Nolan. Thank you very much for joining me here today for your official engagement interview."
Christian: "Thank you for having us, Tom; it's a pleasure to be here."
Tom: "Before we start, how are you both feeling now that your engagement is public news?"
*Christian and Madison look at each other, wanting to see who will answer first. Christian nods for Madison to start.*
Madison: Well, for myself personally, it's been a crazy few weeks since we got engaged, and in the lead up to the announcement, it's been quite hectic just preparing for everything. *Madison says smiling*, but regardless of all of that, I am very happy and excited for this next chapter in my life and in our relationship." *Madison looks at Christian and smiles before turning back to Tom*
Christian: "And I'd have to say the same; the last few weeks since we got engaged have been full on, but like Madison said, I'm very happy, we're both very happy, and we just can't wait for this next stage in our lives."
Tom: "Well, people are obviously very curious about you, so let's start with the obvious. Christian, where did you propose, when, how, and Madison, what did you say?"
Christian: Well, it was about three, almost four weeks ago now, while we were on holiday in Venice. We had time in both our schedules that allowed for the both of us to go on a private holiday, and it was also to celebrate our ten-year anniversary together.
Me and Madison had always talked about marriage for a while, so me proposing wasn't a massively big surprise. We had a private dinner at the apartment where we were staying, and then I just proposed.
Madison: "It was a very romantic dinner. *Madison laughs* Christian here is a true romantic."
Tom: "So you said yes, obviously?"
Madison: "Yes, of course."
Tom: "And you knew you were going to do this from day one of the holiday, or you waited until the end?"
Christian: "I had been planning it out for a while, but as any guy out there will know, it takes a certain amount of motivation to get yourself going. I was planning it, and then it just felt really right out in Venice. What made it even more special was that I proposed on our ten-year anniversary. It was beautiful at the time. I had done a lot bit of planning to show my romantic side."
Tom: "Madison, you'd been on holiday a while, so did you see this coming? Was he getting a bit nervous and jumpy?"
Madison: "No, not at all, really. He was just his normal self, especially on the night he did propose. So I really didn't expect it at all.
