Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo are in the thick of wedding planning, and they're letting fans in on the entire process through their weekly podcast NearlyWeds, but there's one key part that Jamie is keeping to himself.
The happy couple first got together back in 2019 on reality series Made In Chelsea, and are going from strength to strength ever since – with plans to officially tie the knot in the new year.
On their podcast, the couple have been talking all things wedding from invitations and venue to traditions and food, but there's one topic that's off limits as far as Jamie is concerned, and that's the honeymoon.

Speaking to Tyla, Jamie explained that his bride-to-be wanted the holiday destination to be kept a surprise, so that's exactly what's happening.
So, while the couple are rushed off their feet trying to get everything organised for the big day, Jamie is working away behind the scenes to plan the romantic trip of a lifetime.
"I'm doing it at the moment and it's going to be a complete surprise, to the point where when she gets on the flight we're going to blindfold her."
When Sophie chimed in to confess she was worried she might have an 'inkling' as to where it is, Jamie assured her 'it's been changed'. So this is one secret that's going to be kept – if he can help it.
"I'm going to blindfold her and take her on the plane... you're not going to see where you're going", he warned, adding that he planned on yelling over the tannoy every time the destination was announced, just for good measure.
After hearing Jamie's mastermind plan, Sophie confessed that the main reason she wanted her honeymoon to be a surprise was because she doesn't to plan things.
It's a sweet gesture, but if you've ever listened to Jamie and Sophie's podcast before, you know there's not much they don't tell each other - or the rest of the world, for that matter.
So there's every chance he'll spill sooner rather than later, but Jamie insists: "I think we can keep that a secret."
Meanwhile, as Jamie arranges the travel plans, Sophie is still hunting down her perfect wedding dress.
"I've had about four different calls from Sophie to say 'I've found the dress'", laughed Jamie.
Sophie explained: "It's true, but then I didn't because I found out other people wore it and I realised... I think I need to get one made for me", and she's got a designer on the case already.
"I kind of left it to the designer. She's just going for it... and I'm going to hope for the best. I trust it will be lovely."
There's definitely no question about that!
