Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood has been forced to delay his wedding to fiancé Jonathan Myring for the third time.
The long-standing Strictly judge, 59, got engaged to his toyboy partner, 37, in 2020 but postponed tying the knot due to Covid lockdown restrictions. Another cancellation followed in 2022 because of a home refurbishment.
Now Craig has revealed that it’s third time unlucky as the pair put their plans on hold again.

Strictly star Craig Revel Horwood reveals his secret heartache
In an emotional interview with Women’s Own, Craig said his mum Beverley has been diagnosed with cancer once again.
As a result, Craig and Jonathan are waiting until her health improves to tie the knot. He revealed they have provisionally booked a “date in the diary for 2027”.
Craig revealed: “The wedding has had to go on the back burner again! It’s going to be the longest engagement ever – there’s a date in the diary for 2027.
It’s been a right royal mess, but we’ll get there eventually, and hopefully our house will be renovated by then and the gardens will have grown. We want to get married at the house so it’s important to get all that sorted before we do it.”
There’s a little bit of method in the madness!
He then added: “I wanted my mum to be here for it as well. She got cancer 10 years ago and was given the all-clear, but now it’s returned sadly. She’s not really well enough to come over this year, so I’ve said we’ll wait until she’s better.
“I have said that I’ll be going up the aisle on a Zimmer frame, but with Jonathan joining the ambulance service, at least I’ll be looked after! There’s a little bit of method in the madness!”

Lavish plans
The smitten couple began dating in 2018 and got engaged during a 2020 trip to Tasmania after Jonathan proposed.
Craig previously revealed his lavish plans for the nuptials. It included getting hitched at an intimate ceremony with close friends and family at Normanton Church, in Oakham, before a big party at their house.
Craig also spoke of having no more than 250 guests, including Queen Camilla, 77, and singer Dame Shirley Bassey, 87.
