The 26-year-old will be fronting the New Year’s Eve celebration on BBC One on 31 December, having signed up to co-present Craig David Rocks Big Ben Live.

"I knew I wanted to be with Soph on our first date," the Capital Breakfast presenter told HELLO!. "We're both very family-orientated so marriage and kids is a natural progression for us.

"Every time I see a child, I get broody. Soph is so good with kids and you notice those things when you're in a relationship."
