Ghadie met Longchambon in January this year after they were paired together on Dancing on Ice and subsequently became the subject of romance rumours.

"In the future it would be nice to have more children as Sylvain is great with kids," Ghadie told OK! magazine.

On the subject of marriage, she continued: "We're just happy as we are. To be honest, we haven't really thought about it yet."

"I definitely want to be a dad one day," Longchambon added.

The couple moved in together in April.

Ghadie is also thought to have signed a new deal worth £110,000 back in June to stay on Coronation Street for another year.
