Professional dancer Kevin was smug as he shared a picture of a tweet that his now-girlfriend wrote in 2013.
The couple, who met on the BBC dance show in 2018, welcomed their daughter Minnie into the world in January this year.

Kevin wrote in the caption: "As the @bbcstrictly pros are announced today I’m just gona leave this here again from @sjdooley twitter in 2013….."
