Don’t think he’ll have any problems with the first dance…

Former Strictly Come Dancing Star Vincent Simone is engaged to his partner of six years, Susan Duddy.

The dancer, who also appeared in the most recent series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, got down on one knee on Christmas Day.

He told Hello! magazine: “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?’”

Vincent even pulled out a few moves, as he explained: “Whilst she was reading the card, I did a pirouette and presented her with the ring on bended knee. I was quite emotional.”

Speaking about their big day Susan, from Northern Ireland, joked: “Vincent is very theatrical and will want to make a big production of it. I have already told him that if he had his way, he would be the bride.”

The couple already have two sons together, four-year-old Luca and four-month-old Mateo. Their announcement comes only a matter of weeks after Vincent’s former flame and fellow professional Flavia Cacace married her actor beau Jimi Minstry.
