Ferne McCann has opened up on her relationship with her fiancé Lorri Haines, revealing the couple sleep in separate beds and have no plans to tie the knot any time soon.
The Only Way Is Essex star, 33, and the entrepreneur, 32, who share daughter Finty, six months, began dating in 2021 and got engaged seven months later in July 2022.
Ferne has admitted that the pair’s relationship has changed since welcoming their baby girl, who joins Ferne’s other daughter Sunday, six, from her previous relationship with Arthur Collins, an acid attack criminal.
Speaking to OK! magazine, she explained that they now sleep in separate bedrooms to cope with Finty’s infrequent sleeping routine.
The reality star admitted the arrangement means their sex life has taken a hit, but insisted that having their own beds was ‘honestly perfect’.

Ferne confessed: ‘I honestly love it. There are times where I can be quite needy and be like, “You don’t love me any more, I need you in the bed”.
‘But I much prefer it and I don’t know when we’re going to go back to sleeping in the same bed!
‘The last few nights we’ve been watching Beef on Netflix in bed and having really nice chats and he goes off into his bed. It’s honestly perfect.’
Discussing the impact on their chances of getting intimate, she admitted: ‘I’ll be completely honest with you, it’s not very often at the moment.
‘When we first met, we were having sex five times a week, twice a day sometimes. It is not that at all.’
She continued: ‘I think with the baby we’re focused on different things. We find the time when we need to. We both work from home during the days…’
Ferne also revealed that the pair are not in a rush to tie the knot, saying she thinks they will opt for a long engagement instead.
She said: ‘I’m looking at my vision board right now and there’s not one wedding veil in sight. Maybe I need to put something on there so that we do get married eventually.

‘I just feel like we’re going to be engaged for a really long time. We’re committed to each other; I don’t feel like we need to be married right now.’
Lorri proposed to Ferne 18 months ago, with the romantic scenes being aired on her ITVBe show, Ferne McCann: First Time Mum.
He got down on one knee on raised wooden platform on an idyllic beach in France surrounded by flowers, after asking Ferne’s grandad Frank for his permission.
Ferne previously said that she wanted an ‘intimate’ wedding surrounded by their children, but her plans have changed since welcoming Finty.
Last month, she admitted to MailOnline that her and Lorri haven’t begun planning for the big day and even suggested they could elope to Las Vegas instead.
She explained: ‘We’re just enjoying the engagement and the baby. We haven’t really started planning it yet.
‘You never know what’s going to happen. I might end up falling pregnant again, or we might end up eloping and getting married in Vegas. It’s just life.’
