Giovanna and Tom really are the perfect couple - we can't wait to see what happens next and if they have a special vow renewal.

Recently after Giovanna was crowned on I'm a Celeb, Tom got a tattoo of a triceratops as a tribute to his wife and kids. He took to Instagram to show his followers the tattoo and the reason behind it.

"I've wanted a dinosaur for a while so with 'tri' obviously meaning three and us having three kids, a triceratops with its three horns felt right (plus Gi’s @imacelebrity number was 03 too!🤯)."
