Speaking about her boyfriend, Stacey gushed: "He is an angel. He is the kindest man I’ve met. His temperament is very chilled and he would be an amazing father."

Talking about their future plans, Stacey said on a Hosteing Laura Jackson podcast episode: "I think I want to have kids, I’m sort of back and forth. I love the idea of having a gang, a unit, an us against the world. I love all that.

"And I would like to take care of someone. But I’m also quite morbid and because I’ve seen so much (expletive), I think what am I bringing them into?"

Speaking to You magazine, she said: "It's actually one of the things I really love about Kevin. He and Karen [Hauer, Kevin's ex-wife and fellow Strictly pro dancer] have always been really amicable. Karen and I have always been really amicable. We toured the country together for the show. We're all grown-ups."
