Former X Factor contestants and now-loved-up couple Stevi Ritchie and Chloe-Jasmine Whichello have opened up about their romance in an interview on ITV's Lorraine show, this morning.
The couple revealed that things first got serious between the two of them at the end of last year, shortly after the show had wrapped.
“We got serious, I think it was more sort of December time. It was definitely December time when I had just left The X Factor," Stevi said. "We always talked and everything in the house and we got on so well actually. She always knocked on my door in the morning in the house.”
The loved-up pair weren't shy about expressing their love for each other either, with Stevi saying: “I love everything about her, she’s great, I love her.”
Meanwhile, Chloe-Jasmine was quick to shut down suggestions that the two were unlikely couple, quipping: “It’s so strange people say that and we don’t understand that at all. It’s not like he’s dating a panda it’s a quite a normal relationship.”
Chloe-Jasmine also revealed that when the two first met she was wearing a vintage wedding dress, with Stevi admitting that he initially thought his now-girlfriend was "funny but not my cup of tea". He added: “I never thought it possible that it would go into all this and especially meeting Chloe as well. I always wanted to find love but I never expected it would be with Chloe.”
Meanwhile, this isn't the first time the pair have spoken candidly about their romance. The couple have previously said that when talking about marriage, they agreed that they would want a church wedding.
