First Dates star Fred Sirieix announces he’s engaged to girlfriend ‘fruitcake’ after two years – OK! magazine

Fred Sirieix has revealed he’s engaged to his girlfriend after two years.

The 48 year old, who is best known for his appearance on First Dates, took to Instagram to announce the happy news.

Sharing a sweet photo of himself and his new fiancé, who he refers to as fruitcake on the social media site, smiling at the camera, he captioned it: “#fruitcake said yes,” followed by a chocolate bar emoji, red heart emoji and a diamond ring emoji.

Celebrity friends were quick to comment as Pete Wicks, who recently slammed “boring” Mark Wright ahead of a The Only Way Is Essex reunion, wrote: “Yes my man! Congrats,” with a black heart emoji.

Fellow First Dates co-star Cici Coleman commented: “Awww Fred!!!! So happy for you both.”

Fans of the TV star couldn’t help but gush over the happy news too as one person said: “Yay well done and congratulations”.

Another commented: “Amazing, congratulations to you both,” alongside a heart eyes emoji.

A third chimed: “Wow wow wow! Amazing news! Congratulations guys. So happy for you,” together with four red heart emojis.

While a fourth added: “Yayyyy!!! My favourite couple! Sending my love,” with a red heart emoji.

Although Fred is in the spotlight, he’s kept his private life to himself and hasn’t even revealed his soon-to-be-wife’s real name.

However, in an interview back in 2018, the French-born star gave a few details into their romance as he said there’s nothing he loved more than cuddling up on the couch to watching a movie, TV show or documentary on Netflix with his significant other.

He told Fabulous magazine: “Occasionally, I’ll go for a little wine and some tapas after work with my partner, who I like to call “fruitcake”.

“It’s nice to have a relaxing conversation and chill out when you’ve had a long day. If I do get the chance to be in the kitchen.

“In the evenings I like nothing more than sitting down with a beer and watching something on Netflix.”

Prior to his relationship with his current partner, Fred had a 12 year romance with ex girlfriend Alex and shares two children with her, Andrea and Lucien.

Speaking about them in an interview with Closer back in 2016, he said: “Happiness is my kids telling me they love me each day.”
