Tarek, 40, and Heather, 34, are now embracing their first few weeks as man and wife on the picture perfect island.

Realtor Heather gave a glimpse of their special time on her Instagram page, and uploaded a series of clips from their evenings out.

The pair, who are staying at the Waldorf Astoria hotel, spent some quality time together as they took a leisurely bike into town.

The couple had a meal at Terra restaurant surrounded by trees and exotic plants.

The blonde beauty looked sensational wearing a black frilly dress and a pair of flats.

The pair tucked into a variety of mouthwatering dishes including asparagus and truffle soup, and stuffed tomatoes with cheese.

Despite the sudden downpour, the newlyweds made the most of their romantic date night and shielded under an umbrella.

Heather wrote alongside the clip: "So peaceful, I'm not even mad."

She added: "Up in the trees right now about to have such a romantic dinner...there is my pretty, we're all alone in this tree dome."

The loved-up pair then took a buggy to their favorite breakfast spot early yesterday morning.

Heather shared a snap of the stunning sunset and penned: "We can't wait to come back with the kids and family.

"This is a special place."

The pair looked happier than ever as they had breakfast by the beach overlooking the sea.

Tarek then video called daughter Taylor to share his experiences so far with the 11-year-old.

Heather also shared a throwback family snap, writing; "Currently missing them. Tarek is the most incredible loving daddy. I am in awe of you."

The couple told fans that they plan to go snorkeling, but were stopped by the rainstorm.

Sharing a clip of them in the outdoor swimming pool, Heather wrote: "Have never felt so free.

"Feeling like kids here - swimming in a rainstorm, biking all through the town, eating whatever we want, being so in love...truly could not ask for more."

Sharing a sweet snap of her hubby in front of the sea, Heather gushed: "I'm grateful for you every day.

"You protect me and make me feel safe in so many ways."

Meanwhile, Tarek couldn't help but praise his new wife.

Alongside a sweet honeymoon snap of the pair beaming, he wrote:" Honeymooning with my WIFE!! Feels good to say that. ♥️

"The Maldives has been everything we could’ve asked for and more. It’s a special place 🙏.

"Where’d you go on your honeymoon or where’s your dream spot?? This is definitely ours 🙌."

Although the weather has been miserable, Heather made the most of the sporadic sunshine and uploaded a shot showing her posing on a lounger in a tiny lilac bikini.

SHE SAID YES

Tarek and Heather announced their engagement in July of 2020, after one year of dating.

While on a boat trip to Catalina Island, California, Tarek popped the question and Heather said yes.

According to Tarek, the island is a special place for the couple, who enjoy spending time on boats together.

The engagement featured a flower-petal-lined path leading up to two palm trees, where he was standing.

Surrounding the palm trees was a flower arrangement consisting of over 5,000 flowers, including roses and peonies - some of the Sunset star's favorites.

Prior to the engagement, Tarek revealed that he asked Heather's parents for their permission to marry their daughter, to which they approved.

The ring features an eight carat, colorless, emerald-cut diamond, which he described as "perfect."

FLIP OR FLOP

Tarek's ex-wife Christina Haak was on vacation in Tennessee during his second marriage.

The pair have their own HGTV show titled Flip or Flop and owned a real estate agency together. 

They divorced in 2018 after nine years of marriage.
