Gorka posted a snap of Gemma and Mia at the end of November and captioned it, "26 days… [heart emojis] @glouiseatkinson," to which Gemma replied, "Counting them down."

One fan sparked the rumour mill when they commented, "Are you going to ask Gem to marry you at Christmas Gorka…" Another added, "Oooo, I hope so," while a third wrote, "I know, hurry up already." In fact, fans have been asking the question for years.

Back in 2018, Gemma shared a selfie of the couple in Blackpool, to which one of her followers commented, "Proposal and babies the way you two are going."

In April of the same year, Gorka added fuel to the fire when he said he wanted to "get married and have kids".
