She continued: "We are having a little ready minute walking around the garden with the boys thinking where things might be.

Alongside a video of a wooden arch, she said: "I'll never not get massive butterflies when I walk down here.
"Little pathway I'll never take you for granted I promise.
"Lots of you are saying we should get married here. I bloody wish, we already booked our venue before we knew about pickle cottage and I'm sure we'd need a special licence or something."
She later told Cat Deeley on ITV’s Lorraine that she was exploring her options, explaining: “We had the venue and we didn’t know we were going to move here. We saw the house and thought, ‘Let’s go for it’.
“Now we’re here, we’d actually like to get married in the garden. We’re trying to see if we can do that.
“We don’t know if we’ll be able to get a licence and stuff.
“The wedding planning is a bit on halt at the moment. It’s all just come at once, so many of these things have been in the planning for years... I feel so lucky, privileged and grateful and I just think you have to take any opportunity when it comes.”
