During a new interview with OK! magazine, Nikita revealed that he has marriage on his mind when it comes to girlfriend Lauren.
Lauren, 23, a Bristol Uni graduate who now works as a model, and Nikita were first spotted together in October 2023.
In the same month, Nikita whisked Lauren away on holiday to Iceland – which she described as being the “the best birthday present in the world”.
In March of last year, Lauren appeared on Celebrity Big Brother to surprise her boyfriend. The couple shared an emotional moment together, just days before Nikita finished the series as runner-up.
Last June, Nikita shared a sweet snap of the couple to celebrate their first anniversary together.
“1 year today [love heart emoji] love you bibble,” he wrote.
