Konnie Huq: Celebrity dating is going well

Despite putting her wedding on hold, Konnie Huq has revealed celebrity dating with Charlie Brooker is going well.

Speaking to Look magazine, the Xtra Factor presenter explained why the couple decided to cancel their marriage plans.

They originally wanted to tie the knot in a quickie ceremony in Las Vegas during a month-long road trip around the US earlier this year.

But when Huq was called upon to replace Holly Willoughby on the X Factor spin-off show, the pair decided to put their arrangements on hold.

She also described how she first met Brooker when they were both rich singles.

"We've known each other for years. We met at the Edinburgh Festival and always got on well. We're constantly laughing, that's the brilliant thing about our relationship, it's so much fun," Huq stated.

She also said she finds his personality irresistible.

While Huq first made her name as a Blue Peter presenter, Brooker has a regular column in the Guardian's G2 supplement and produces Screenwipe for the BBC.
