Former 'Strictly' Star To Tie The Knot

Former 'Strictly Come Dancing' star Vincent Simone has revealed he is to tie the knot with his girlfriend.

The professional dancer admitted he had proposed to partner Susan Duggan on Christmas Day.

The couple already have two children together.

Speaking to Hello! magazine, Simone, 34, said: "I went with my heart on the spur of the moment on Christmas morning and gave her a Christmas card in which I wrote: 'Will you marry me?'

"I am a bit of a showman and had hoped to do something spectacular but both Susan and myself have travelled and lived exciting lives so I thought perhaps the most surprising gesture of all would be to do something understated in our cosy home on Christmas Day.

"Whilst she was reading the card, I did a pirouette and presented her with the ring on bended knee. I was quite emotional."

The dancer added that he was encouraged to finally pop the question after he appeared on reality television show 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' last year.

"I think going into the jungle made me realise how important our life together is to me," he confessed. "Going back to basics made me appreciate how full my life is and how lucky I am. We only have one chance in this life, and I want to make it the best I can."
