JAMES McVey has revealed that Harry Redknapp’s marriage to Sandra has inspired him to pop the question to girlfriend Kirstie Brittian.
Speaking on today’s Loose Women, the I’m A Celeb star said: “Harry and Sandra are the true love story. It’s very easy for us all to think it doesn’t exist. But it really does.

“They met when they were 17, courted for four years, then got married. They’re definitely the example that’s made me realise Kirstie and I are very happy with what we’ve got and we want to kind of do it really.”
The Vamps star continued: “He’s given me the inspiration to take the next step. No [I haven’t proposed yet].
“It’s funny actually, she had a ring with her, not the ring, [but she] had a ring and wore it on that finger without thinking anything of it. When we were papped leaving the hotel everyone thought we’d got engaged. I think soon. I need to get the ring.”

And Harry’s involvement isn’t going to stop there, he added: “He has [recommended a jeweller]. I grew up in Dorset where he lives, so we have so many mutual friends and places and he’s picked me a place to go. He said, ‘Just say that Harry sent you!’”
James has been dating the model, who is also an Environment, Politics + Society student currently at UCL in London, for four years.
Meanwhile, James also spoke about why he signed up to do I’m A Celeb, saying: “I wanted to do it, I’m very happy with my position in The Vamps - I don’t want to go solo or anything like that.

"I wanted to test myself as a person.
“I struggle a lot in social situations with people I don’t know. I thought the best way to do it would be to take away absolutely everything and focus on being comfortable with myself.”
He laughed: “The first day I was in there, we were all washing our nether regions next to each other – at that moment I knew from the off we were going to bond!”
