Konnie Huq and Charlie Brooker have got engaged after a secret nine-month relationship.

The ex-Blue Peter presenter and You Have Been Watching host were apparently thinking of getting married in Las Vegas during a month-long road trip across America together.

However, they were forced to put the holiday on hold after Huq was chosen to host The Xtra Factor, reports the Daily Mail.

A source said: "Konnie and Charlie are very much in love. They got engaged some weeks ago, but have been trying to keep the news quiet.

"They were going to go on holiday this Friday and were thinking of actually getting married in Vegas, but that has all been put on ice after Konnie got The Xtra Factor. It's been a bit of a whirlwind week."

Meanwhile, a source told The Sun: "Konnie's really upset as she was looking forward to getting away with Charlie.

"She kept joking they were going away to have a shotgun wedding. You never know with those two though - that might be why she was so gutted about cancelling it."

The relationship is said to have blossomed after Huq appeared in an episode of Brooker's Screenwipe last year.
