He stripped off in a salt bath and dropped to one knee to ask the question as the pair were enjoying champagne.
The couple initially wanted to get married quickly, but decided to wait until after Covid restrictions had lifted to say “I do”.
They next planned to marry in one of the most haunted parts of the country, with Craig having chosen a venue dating back to the 1800s near Rutland Water.
The church they chose is surrounded by an area once known as Witches Heath, believed to be a meeting place for sorceresses.
During an episode of the Chris and Rosie Ramsay Show on May 30, 2022, Craig and Jonathan went through the ins and outs of their wedding plans.
Craig is famed for his extensive dancing background, however, Jonathan is not, and Strictly’s Amy Dowdon was drafted in to teach him how to dance ahead of their big day.
“There sort of is pressure for our first dance,” Craig admitted on the show.
“I did see that Rhumba last year that I liked. It was Johannes and John and I thought they would be perfect for the wedding, but as soon as I mentioned it on television Jonathan has a seizure.
“His head spun round three times and he threw up.”
These plans were for a ceremony to be held in 2022, but these were pushed back again until 2023 due to some home refurbishments.
But now it looks like the wedding won’t take place until 2027.
Ahead of Strictly 2024 kicking off, Craig told Woman’s Own magazine: “The wedding has had to go on the back burner again!
“It’s going to be the longest engagement ever – there’s a date in the diary for 2027.
“It’s been a right royal mess, but we’ll get there eventually, and hopefully our house will be renovated by then and the gardens will have grown.
“We want to get married at the house so it’s important to get all that sorted before we do it.
“I wanted my mum to be here for it as well. She got cancer 10 years ago and was given the all-clear, but now it’s returned sadly.
“She’s not really well enough to come over this year, so I’ve said we’ll wait until she’s better.
“I have said that I’ll be going up the aisle on a Zimmer frame, but with Jonathan joining the ambulance service, at least I’ll be looked after!
“There’s a little bit of method in the madness!”
How did Craig and Jonathan meet?
The couple met in 2018 after being introduced by a friend on the Strictly arena tour.
They live together in Craig’s sprawling Hampshire mansion.
