Joe McFadden engaged to partner
He gushed: “Couldn’t be happier to be engaged to be married to my amazing soulmate, Rob. #loveislove.”
His celeb followers were over the moon as Nikki Sanderson commented: “Aww congratulations!!”
Laura Whitmore said: “Congrats,” followed by a red heart emoji.
Meanwhile, a fan wrote: “Aww, so happy for you Joe. Congratulations to you both.”
In addition, someone else said: “Congratulations. So happy for you. Beautiful couple.”
Joe has remained pretty private about his love life. In 2017, he opened up about being single whilst competing on Strictly.
He told Daily Record at the time: “Love is not on the cards for me on this show – certainly not. I don’t know why I’m single. I must be unlovable, I don’t know. Who knows? Maybe I work too hard.
Couldn’t be happier to be engaged to be married to my amazing soulmate, Rob.
“I’ve not been in a relationship in recent times. No, I’ve been working very hard in Holby and committing my time to that.”
However, he also insisted at the time that the Strictly ‘curse’ wasn’t going to strike with his pro partner Katya Jones – who was married to fellow dancer Neil Jones at the time.
Meanwhile, he added: “Katya’s very happily married and I’m just happy to be getting on with my steps without thinking of any of that other stuff.”
Joe appeared on Strictly in 2017 and ended up winning the series with Katya.
