Kemi’s followers and celebrity pals rushed to the comments section to share their excitement at the news.

Fellow Capital star & This Morning host Sian Welby screamed: “OMGGGG INCREDIBLE.”
And former X Factor star Sam Lavery squealed: “OMG YESSSSS.”
Kemi’s announcement comes just weeks after she revealed that her and Thomas have actually been dating for more than a year – despite them only going public with their relationship in September.
She recently told The Mirror about managing a long distance relationship while she’s working Down Under: “We’re gonna have a little bit of a holiday at the end of the show, which I’m so excited to see him.
“But the thing is, is we were actually together last year when I did the show.
“And of course, he didn’t come out for the entire run. Yeah, it’s long distance, but it’s only long distance for like a month.”
She added: “There’s people who have partners who will go for months at a time for work or live in different parts of the country.
“Um, so like my heart goes out to them, so I can’t say that I’ve suffered at all.
“So yeah, lots of FaceTimes, lots of messages, and then, yeah, very excited to be reunited with him. What a little cutie!”
Kemi is also a presenter on Capital Radio, where she hosts their mid-morning show.
As well as her radio fame, Kemi is a regular face on TV panel shows.
The star has popped up on Big Brother: Late and Live and BBC’s Morning Live.
When ITV announced they would be bringing back I’m A Celeb’s spin-off show as the rebranded Unpacked, they said that Kemi would be part of the team.
