Both with a gleaming white smile good enough for the highstreet of Mark's home town Essex, this couple have been inseparable since 2012 - despite split rumours and ex-partners jumping in the mix.

It may be true that they could last much longer than previously predicted, as they look more and more alike every time we see them.
