| Updated:

Gemma Atkinson has hinted at a move to Spain with boyfriend Gorka Marquez.

The couple, who met on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017, are expecting their first child together.

But it seems the pair are fed up with the British weather and may leave it behind to soak up the sun in Spain.

Gorka, 28, posted a rain-drenched photo of himself taking their dogs out for a walk in the rain.

The Spanish dancer captioned the post: “When u say, ‘No worries Gem, ill walk the dogs today’ and 5 min later, the wonderful weather of UK decides to change @glouiseatkinson.

“HAVE A GREAT MONDAY.”

While fans were amused by his picture, Gemma was quick to comment on the post.

The former Emmerdale actress wrote: “Told you we need to move to Spain.”

Many fans agreed with Gemma, with one person commenting: “Get planning that second family home in Majorca.”

Another said: “Yep agree with Gemma, Spain it is,” while a third wrote: “Yes, Gemma you need to move to España!”

The loved-up pair announced they are expecting their first child together last month.

At the weekend, Gemma posted an adorable photo of her dogs jumping up onto her as she showed off her growing baby bump.

She wrote: “Sunday funday. So excited for them to meet their little sibling #newpackmember.”

The couple met when Gemma took part in the 2017 run of the BBC One dancing competition – and although both she and Gorka both made the final, they were partnered with Aljaz Skorjanec and Alexandra Burke respectively.

However, they did not confirm they were an item until Valentine’s Day last year, after the series ended.
