Gemma gave fans updates of the day, which she attended with a very smartly dressed Gorka. The pair are currently navigating through Gemma's first pregnancy - and there has even been talk of moving to Spain. The revelation came earlier this week, as Strictly professional Gorka took to Instagram to complain about the current stormy and windy weather in London. He captioned a video which saw him walking his and Gemma's dogs during a hailstorm: "When you say 'No worries Gem, I'll walk the dogs today' and 5 min later the wonderful weather of UK decides to change. HAVE A GREAT MONDAY". The dancer, who is originally from the North of Spain, tagged pregnant Gemma in his post and she was quick to respond, revealing her dream plans: "Told you we need to move to Spain".
We'd hate to wave goodbye to the couple, but - then again - we totally relate to wanting sunnier climes!
