Saara Aalto has proposed to her girlfriend again after Finland legalised same-sex marriage.
Meri Sopanen with Saara Aalto
The 'X Factor' runner-up re-affirmed her commitment to Meri Sopanen on Twitter today (02.03.17) when she asked for her hand in marriage.
Alongside a string of heart emojis, Saara penned: "Same sex marriage is legal in Finland today!!! would you marry me @MeriSopanen (sic)"
The 29-year-old singer had rigorously campaigned for gay marriage for years and is delighted with the ruling.
The Finnish beauty captioned a throwback photo of herself at a march in Finland three years ago: "In 2014 we were singing for love and equality. so glad we did!!!! (sic)"
Meanwhile, Saara - who has signed a five album deal with Sony Music and Sony Music Finland - is keen for her 'X Factor' mentor Sharon Osbourne to attend the wedding which will take place sometime next year.
She explained: "Our date will hopefully be in 2018 and I'd like to get married somewhere warm. In Finland and the UK you can't predict the weather. We want it to be sunny. Something small and intimate because my work is so public. That would be good for me, but my partner wants to have a big wedding."
Asked if she will invite Sharon, Saara said: "Yes, I hope she'd come! She texted me asking how my life is going since 'X Factor' and I texted her back a few days ago."
As well as planning her big day, the star is also hoping to collaborate with Matt Terry - who beat her to the winner's crown last year - some time this year.
She said: "Me and Matt Terry would love to record music together, maybe something on YouTube to our fans. And a Finnish TV company will be following my life for the next eight months for a documentary. It will be a nice memory to watch when I'm old."
