Strictly Come Dancing stars Tyler West and Molly Rainford have revealed they are in no hurry to marry, almost a year after their engagement in Mykonos, Greece. The couple, who met on the BBC dance show four years ago, say they are enjoying being engaged and are not yet planning a wedding date.
Tyler, who bought Molly's engagement ring early in their relationship, joked that planning a wedding is "a full-time job". Molly added that they would need to "take a sabbatical" to organise the ceremony. The pair are currently seeking inspiration for their big day, with the choice of food proving a particular challenge.
Molly said: "Once you're married, you're going to be Mr and Mrs forever, you're not going to be a fiancée forever." Tyler echoed her sentiments, questioning why people skip the engagement phase. The couple are also considering a wedding abroad, which Tyler said limits options and makes decisions harder.
The pair have now become celebrity supporters of Soccer Aid for UNICEF, their first time working with the charity. Molly described the event as "life-changing" and said she was "buzzing" to be involved. Tyler expressed excitement about seeing friends Chloe Burrows and Harry Aikines-Aryeetey on the pitch.
Reflecting on their Strictly experience, Molly urged future contestants to "enjoy it" and described it as a "once-in-a-lifetime experience". Tyler said the show changed their lives and advised participants to live in the moment. Molly added that she has learned to be resilient in the face of setbacks in the entertainment industry.
