Gorka answers the baby question

In April, Gemma revealed her hopes for a second baby in the future, telling her Instagram fans: "If we're lucky enough I'd love a sibling for Mia, but when she's older now! When she can wipe her own bum maybe."

Gorka is currently away from home training for the upcoming series of Strictly.

On Sunday, the star posted photos on his Instagram of Gemma holding Mia, captioning the snaps: "Missing My girls @glouiseatkinson." Gemma replied: "We miss you too papa," with a heart emoji.

Gorka also addressed another interesting question on his Stories question and answer session, that of: "Will you marry Gemma in Bilbao or in the UK. Have you set a date yet?"

Gorka simply answered: "YES! YES! YES! Will marry her anywhere."

Gemma, 36, and Gorka, 30, met on the set of Strictly in 2017 when the actress and presenter made it to the final with Aljaz Skorjanec. They began dating after the series ended and welcomed their daughter Mia on 4 July 2019.

The pair got engaged on Valentine's Day this year and shared a romantic selfie that showed Gemma's sparkling diamond ring. "Valentine's forever... Of course, I said yes," she beamed.
