But they’ve proved all the critics wrong and set a date for their wedding!
Speaking to OK! Magazine, Stevi revealed when he and Chloe, 24, will tie the knot – and the romantic reason behind it.
He said: “It’s going to be next August because then it will be two years since we met.”
Chloe, who impressed the judges with her silky jazz voice last year, discussed the moment Stevi popped the question, admitting it came completely out of the blue.
She said: “I was in shock! I’m not used to men being nice to me and I wasn’t expecting a proposal.”
Talking about their impending nuptials, Stevi revealed they want it to be ‘traditional, over-the-top and in a church’, and he’s got big plans for the wedding party.
He added: “I’d love for Simon [Cowell] to do it!”
Although their relationship initially attracted some criticism, after Chloe allegedly dumped her long-term boyfriend for her X Factor co-star, it seems they couldn’t be happier now.
Earlier this year, Stevi broke the news of their engagement on Twitter. He wrote: “Hi everyone we are very pleased to announce that me and @CHLOEJASMINENEW are engaged I am over the moon thank you peeps [sic].”
