On taking things to the next level from their first chat, the Essex native said: ‘The first conversation we ever had in the DMs was about a wedding, I actually asked her to marry me as my first message and she just went along with it which was great.
‘But yeah we have spoke about it, obviously we’ve only been actually together for two months so I think I dunno it’s up to you really isn’t it because you said you’re gonna do the proposing, so it’s up to Francesca.’
(Francesca) I never really thought about doing it myself until I met her, right when I met her, I was like it’s gonna be me, it needs to be me who’s gonna do it. I already know how I’m gonna do it, she’s not gonna see it coming.’

Influencer Demi, who has been living in London with Francesca for a month, stood by their decision as she explained: ‘I got her name tattooed on my butt like the first week we met, yeah literally 6 days in.
‘From the day that I met Francesca she kept saying ”I really wanna get your name tattooed on me, I really wanna do it I love you so much” I just thought she was bluffing, I didn’t think she was being serious.
‘Then this one specific day we was at this beach bar and she was like I wanna do it today so then we went into a tattoo shop didn’t we and you ended up getting it done in my hand writing.
‘Yeah, she wrote it out like 30 times and then I picked the cute one with the heart on the I. Then I felt left out so I wanted to get her initial put on my body, she was like no I’m not letting you do it.
‘She doesn’t have any tattoo’s so this was her very first tattoo so I was like you need to think of what it will look like, like for me I have a few so I knew for sure I wanted to do it and I was thinking about it for like a week up to that.’
While they may seem strong now, the younger sister of Chloe Sims confessed her friends and family were apprehensive about Francesca at first.

Demi shared: ‘She was literally like come to Mexico and meet me and I was nervous because I’ve never met her before so I was like what am I gonna do, am I actually gonna fly to Mexico by myself and meet this girl I’ve never met? It was all just crazy.
‘In my heart and my head, it felt like the right thing to do. My mum was like make sure that she’s real, like your flying over to Mexico to meet this person you’ve just met on social media.
‘All my friends were saying the same things as well like ”You’re crazy, don’t do that that’s so dangerous” and I was like no guys honestly this girl, I feel like me and this girl have got so much in common I have to go and meet her.’
