Explaining what was going on, she said: ‘We are moving. Can you believe? I actually must be crazy. And I’m moving in every single sense of the word. 

‘So first of all, with the house, we’ve found ourselves in a position where we got an offer on our house. Anyway, crazy. 

‘It happened out of the blue, but we have found a plot that is in a spot that we have always loved so badly.’ 

She then revealed she and Marvin were constructing their own property and watching Grand Designs for inspiration.

Rochelle continued: ‘So we’re going to build a house. I’ve never built a house before. 

‘I’m so excited but we are now in a rental for eighteen months to two years. I think more two years probably… plus, whilst we build hopefully the forever home.

‘We love moving. It’s become our favourite pastime. I’m not sure why, how or whatever but we’re definitely a little bit gypsy at heart. I love embarking on a new adventure.’

Rochelle said the new house won’t be far from their former property explaining: ‘We’re in the same sort of area so we’re not far.
