‘I want to marry you!’ Big Brother star Daniel Gorringe, 27, made a shock announcement to girlfriend Ana Cannon during Sunday’s nights COVID-19 lockdown episode
In a series first for Australia, Big Brother production was halted for three days as the crew abandoned the set after a COVID-19 scare was being accessed.
The remaining nine housemates, including Dan, were given the opportunity to speak with their loved ones during a short phone call.
‘I can’t wait to come home and give you a big kiss and a hug – I love you so much,’ Daniel began his phone call.
However things soon escalated, as he said: ‘Trust me. I want you. I want all of you. I want to marry you. I want you for my whole life. I want you forever and ever and ever for every single day.’

Daniel also expressed his desire to buy a big property and a golden retriever to live their happy life together on the outside.
Ana responded: ‘We’re going to be in a bloody recession [after COVID-19], so how about you just focus on winning Big Brother, because now we need $250,000.’
Daniel previously professed his love for on-again-off-again girlfriend Ana in a tearful video-call reunion last week on the show.

He later reconciled with Ana in April after filming ended.
‘We broke up because I wasn’t mature enough,’ Daniel said on the show. ‘It’s so scary to lose the thing you love the most, and not to know if it will ever come back.’
When he entered the Big Brother house, Daniel told host Sonia Kruger: ‘I am single, but there’s somebody on the outside that I want to try and get back with.’
