Kai Widdrington hints at marriage plans

The 37-year-old professional dancer revealed he is smitten with his co-star and hinted at an engagement.

He told The Sun newspaper: "What can I say . . . we are very happy together and we don’t want this to end. Of course we want to be together for life, so we will see where it goes."

Kai and Nadiya, 33, also opened up about how they first started dating in secret, when Kai finally asked the blonde beauty out for dinner after weeks of texting and phone calls.

He said: "I think I speak for most of the men in Britain when I say that they would find Nadiya absolutely drop-dead gorgeous — and I still have to pinch myself sometimes.

“We liked each other, and we were texting and having phone calls and so on, and yeah, it blossomed from there.

“Then one day I was like ‘do you want to go out for dinner?’, and it went from there.

“We knew that it would come out and that it would be a big thing, so we kept it private for as long as we could, which was both annoying and exciting at the same time.

“It was one of those things. We would go somewhere and only we knew we were there.

“Sometimes we would go out in disguise, or baseball caps pulled down low, etc, and we knew this period of time was only going to last a little bit."

And, Kai has hinted that an engagement is on the cards.
