Panning the camera up and down an oblivious Gorka’s tanned body, she quipped: “Had worse views!”

She added a crying with laughter emoji.

While back home in the UK we’ve had wind, rain and pretty dismal weather, lucky Gemma and Gorka have been basking in the sunshine together as they wind down abroad after the Strictly Come Dancing Live Tour 2018.

Not that they’re rubbing it in with all their gorgeous beach snaps…

Gorka shared a cute picture to Instagram Stories showing him and Gemma holding hands as they lay next to each other on beach sunbeds.

As they both beamed for the camera, he added the caption: “MOOD FRIDAY.”

Well, we’d be happy too if we were on hols!

Gemma and Gorka FINALLY confirmed their romance with a sweet pic on Valentine’s Day showing them sitting together on the beach, backs to the camera.

It ended MONTHS of speculation about whether they were or weren’t a couple.

Emmerdale’s Gemma was first linked to pro dancer Gorka last year, when it emerged they’d grown close on Strictly despite not actually being partnered together.

But they always played down any romance – until now!

And now they’ve opened that romance floodgate, they can’t stop sharing! Which is AMAZING for us!

They’ve since shared pics of themselves at the gym, toasting each other with a cocktail, just chilling out and a sweet video of Gorka planting a kiss on his girlfriend’s cheek.

Fans are absolutely loving the fact they’re an item.

One wrote on Instagram: “Loving you guys so much , not only did @glouiseatkinson fall in love with dancing but she also fell in love with @gorka_marquez and now you two can dance forever!!”

Another said: “Proper crushing on this relationship.”

A third added: “Gorgeous couple, may you have a long loving relationship.”

Meanwhile, Gemma and Gorka weren’t the only Strictly romance making headlines this week.

Fellow pro dancer Giovanni Pernice used Valentine’s Day to confirm he’s dating ex-TOWIE star Jessica Wright, after they were reportedly introduced by her brother, Mark, who previously competed on Strictly.

So much love in the air!
