Chris, who found fame on Love Island in 2017, has now revealed that the pair are sharing a house. The star claimed that the move means they can now spend more time together after struggling to deal with their mounting work commitments.

Speaking to The Mirror, the 26-year-old said, “Our schedules aren't too bad, we obviously live together now, which I think everyone knows.

"We fit around it. Nobody is ever too busy for love, that's what they say."

The star went on to say that their romance was stronger than ever, branding Jesy “a wonderful lady.”

Last month, Chris took Jesy away on a surprise birthday trip to Portofino.

Gushing about the trip, Jesy wrote, “Surprised me on my birthday and took me to one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to, Portofino.

"All I've done is eat bread, pasta and pizza so I'm feeling rather on the large side of life.

"I'm so happy I got to experience this with you I love you so much."
