STRICTLY alum Gemma Atkinson has just shared an update about when she will tie the knot with her fiancé, Gorka Marquez.
The pair met on back in 2017.
Gemma and Gorka have been dating since 2018
The duo met in 2017 as Strictly Come Dancing cast-mates

But funnily enough , 40, and , 35, weren’t actually coupled up during their time on the show.
Their relationship blossomed off-screen, with the duo beginning to officially date in 2018.
They got engaged three years later and now share a son and a daughter – Mia, five, and son Thiago, two.
After years of , Gemma has revealed why the couple have been waiting so long to walk down the aisle – and why they plan to wait even longer.
In an interview Gemma said: “We’ve toyed about doing it in so his [Gorka’s] family can come.
“We’ve even thought about doing it in a registry office or a hotel in , just the two of us, and then have a big party after.”
But what the lovebirds have settled on couldn’t be sweeter or more thoughtful.
“I think now we want to wait until Thiago is a bit older, so maybe next year or the year after, as he’s only two.
“If he’s a bit older, he could be involved in it, which would be really nice.”

The cancellation came about due to incredibly busy schedules on both ends, with Gorka busy as a professional dancer and Gemma as a radio host.
The pair were also wishing to prioritise trying for instead of splashing out on a lavish event.
The wedding update comes only months after Gemma and Gorka found out that their reality TV show Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind The Lens had for a third season on Apple TV.
