'It's official............I can't sing Beyoncé anymore thanks to @Tony_Butland' Chris quipped at the time, sharing a snap of his impressive diamond engagement ring with his followers.
In a previous interview, he also addressed the confusion that some Gogglebox viewers had faced after thinking that he and co-star Stephen were actually a couple.
'We were friends years ago, and then we evolved into sort of more like a relationship, so we were actually seeing each other when I got the opportunity of going on Gogglebox. So that's how Stephen and I got on it,' he explained.
'We were actually a couple for the first series! But we decided that we're better as friends. So second series, we went into it as friends, but I think a lot of followers that watched the first series continued to think that we were a couple.'
