Actress and radio star Gemma Atkinson has revealed that she and fiance Gorka Marquez will be getting married abroad.
The pair, who met when Hits Radio host Gemma competed on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017, revealed the happy news of their engagement on Valentine's Day.
Now Gemma, from Bury, has told Channel 4 show Steph’s Packed Lunch more details of their wedding plans.
She said: “We’re obviously not going to do it this year given everything that is going on, the only thing we have agreed on so far is that we are going to do it abroad.”
She said of her Spanish fiance: “Gorka wants his family to be able to order drinks at the bar and understand the waiters.
“His family don’t speak English and my family don’t speak Spanish, so we’ve said that we’ll meet halfway.
“That’s all we’ve agreed on. Not this year, but the year after – if I can tolerate him for that long obviously.”
The couple share daughter Mia, who was born in 2019.
They first met on the set of Strictly Come Dancing competing in different ballroom partnerships, with their romance blossoming after the competition was over.
Gemma and Gorka revealed news of their engagement to fans on Instagram, with sweet posts shared on Valentine's Day, with Gemma saying: "Valentine's forever... of course I said yes."
