Strictly proposal? Jamie Laing has said he’ll propose to girlfriend Sophie Habboo if he wins Strictly Come Dancing 2020 (pictured with pro partner Karen Hauer on Saturday’s show)
Talking about his future with Sophie, he joked in this week’s OK! magazine that a TV proposal would be her ‘worst nightmare’.
He quipped: ‘You know what, maybe I should do that, when I lift the trophy… I might propose to her at the same time. Honestly, she would be furious if I did it on the Strictly dance floor, on the TV, it would be her worst nightmare.’
Although Jamie cheekily added that ‘between us’ he will propose if he wins Strictly 2020.
Talking about whether they are concerned about the show’s curse, Jamie insisted that they won’t be hit by it as Sophie is ‘one of the most amazing people’ he’s ever met in his entire life.

The Strictly ‘curse’ is seen when one or more members of a couple compete on BBC One’s Strictly Come Dancing.
The couple is typically torn apart by time-related issues or one partner’s attraction to another person on the show, which in the past has led to divorces, breakups, called off engagements and more.
He said: ‘Look, it doesn’t matter if you’ve been married 40 years or dating for weeks. The curse has been hyped to be this big thing but we have to remember it’s just hype, you make a choice if you want to sleep with your dance partner.
‘From my side, I’m totally in love with my girlfriend and one way to show how much you love someone is by not cheating, right? It comes down to respect and trust. I’d never want to hurt her, she’s my best friend.’

‘Terrified!’ Habbs jokes, adding: ‘No I’m not!’
What curse? Talking about whether they are concerned about the show’s curse, Jamie insisted that they won’t be hit by it as Sophie is ‘one of the most amazing people’ he’s ever met in his entire life
‘You are quite cursed anyway. You are more cursed than Strictly,’ Alex jokes.
‘I counter the curse!’ Jamie says.
He then explains: ‘Last year when I got given my partner, and I told [Habbs] my foot had been hurt, [she] said “Which girl am I going to have to kill?”‘
