Erm my only advice would be to not to expect to much when you go over there, it sounds to me like she doesnt know which one of you guys she wants and it is unfair on both of you, im pretty sure its the distance in your relationship that has brought these feelings out on her, this guy was there beside her giving her the attention that you couldnt give to her from a distance.
Whatever you do just spend your time talking and being honest with each other, ask her what she really wants, who she wants, does she want to marry you, and would she move to the uk with you and set up life there. You both just need to be open and honest together. goodluck
