They were one of Big Brother’s more unlikely couples, but Ryan Ruckledge and Hughie Maughan have proved their relationship was more than a showmance by getting engaged.
The former housemates have announced they are getting married, following a whirlwind few months together.
The pair, who met on the Channel 5 reality show in June, revealed their big news with messages on their Twitter accounts.
Ryan, who previously appeared on ‘The X Factor’ in 2015, wrote:
Irish traveller Hughie added:
Ryan and Hughie quickly formed a bond on ‘Big Brother’ when they were both selected to become ‘Others’, living together in the ‘Other House’.
After days of flirting, the pair eventually shared a kiss, and were a fully-fledged couple by the time Ryan was evicted in week six of the series.
Hughie finished runner-up to eventual winner Jason Burrill, despite being the bookies’ favourite to be crowned champion.
During their time in the house, Ryan and Hughie found themselves at the centre of a row with housemate Andy West, when they claimed they’d gotten engaged, much like Andy had with his own boyfriend.
