The 'Only Way Is Essex' star has revealed the couple - who have been dating for 18 months - had put their names down for a property together but the sale fell through when the current owner decided not to move out in the end.

She told the Daily Star newspaper: "We have already been looking at houses. We had an offer on one accepted, but at the last minute, the woman who owned it decided she didn't want to move out. It is a massive step but I know it's the right one.

"He wants to get married even more than I do. I hope it does happen but I do not want to rush anything. I keep telling him not to talk about it. He can never hide a secret from me so I'm scared when he does propose, he will just tell me beforehand!"

Meanwhile, Tommy - who also appears on the ITVBe show - previously revealed he wouldn't mind tying the knot on television.

He explained: "I don't want to propose on the show but I'll throw an engagement party. It'll be an Irish-Greek wedding. My family is Irish and hers in Greek. My mum and dad got married on telly - on a BBC show called 'Love Town' in 1999. They ran away to Gretna Green and got married, but my mum turned up with a bus load of people from Ireland.

"Yeah [I'll get married on TV]. Just not the engagement because that's so much more personal. I'm not just getting married to Georgia for a scene on the show like everyone else does. My family ain't bothered about fame - it's the last thing they want. The marriage just happened at the right time. They won't come on 'TOWIE' or anything."
