When former footballer Kevin Kilbane signed up to take part in the 2020 series of Dancing On Ice last year, he probably didn't imagine he'd leave the show with so much!

Despite not actually winning the skating competition, Kevin and his pro-partner Brianne Delcourt had an immediate spark, resulting in Kevin proposing to Brianne the night he was eliminated from the show, despite the pair only knowing each other for a number of months.

Now, as lockdown rules begin to ease, Kevin and Brianne have revealed they've taken another huge step in their relationship, buying a dream lake house for themselves, and Brianne's daughter Gracie Isabella.

Sharing a photo of the family on the doorstep of their new home, Kevin, Brianne and Gracie posed next to sign which reads, 'Said yes to the address!'

Brianne told fans, 'June 9th 2020 we bought our Lake house, Dream house 🔑— @kdkilbane77'. (sic)
