Ferne McCann says it was love at first sight with her boyfriend Lorri Haines
The ‘First Time Mum’ star, 31, knew instantly that she is "going to marry” him, after she met her boyfriend while on holiday in Dubai with her four-year-old daughter Sunday, who she shares with ex Arthur Collins.
Speaking on her reality show, she said: "I flew to Dubai and me and Sunday were going to have a few days with Danielle [Armstrong] and [her fiance] Tom.
"Lorri lives in Dubai and he slid into the DMs. I never, ever reply back to guys that slide in the DMs.
"But I noticed Lorri's message and I was like, 'He's quite fit'. This guy is a blend between Bradley Cooper and Matthew McConaughey.
"And he was like, 'Do you want to go out for dinner?' I said, 'I'm with my daughter'. He said, 'But I have to see you before you go'.
"I was like, 'You're more than welcome to come and meet us,' and he said, 'Yeah, I'm going to come and meet you.'
"He walked in and I was like, 'That is the man I'm going to marry. I just know it'. "
The former 'The Only Way is Essex' star also showed viewers a glimpse of her first date with the 30-year-old estate agent, which involved a romantic boat ride.
She added: "I feel so lucky. It was like the heavens had opened up and god sent me an angel.
"This just feels so right, I can't see why it wouldn't work. I feel like our stars were aligned.
"I literally feel like I'm on cloud nine right now. I feel like I'm in a movie, I feel like I'm a princess."
