Congratulations are in order for Strictly Come Dancing pro Neil Jones and Love Island star Chyna Mills, who have tied the knot. The couple revealed the happy news today on Instagram<\/a>, sharing a reel of sweet black-and-white photos from the special day.<\/p>\n

The pair confirmed that the wedding took place earlier this week, writing in the caption: “01.07.26.”<\/p>\n

Neil and Chyna have since received a host of congratulatory messages from co-stars, with Strictly’s Karen Hauer posting: “Huge Congratulations.”<\/p>\n

“Congratulations guys,” added Gorka Marquez, while Oti Mabuse echoed: “Crying congratulations.”<\/p>\n

“Beautiful! Massive congratulations to you both xxxxxxx,” said Amy Dowden, with head judge Shirley Ballas adding: “Congratulations to two beautiful humans.”<\/p>\n

Tasha Ghouri, who appeared on Love Island with Chyna as well as Strictly, penned: “Ahhhh congratulations,” as Dami Hope simply commented: “Awhhhhh.”<\/p>\n

Neil and Chyna got together in 2022, before getting engaged the following year<\/a> and welcoming a baby girl<\/a> called Havana together.<\/p>\n

Neil proposed on a romantic trip to Bali, recalling to Hello<\/a>: “I’d already planned to ask Chyna to marry me before we knew she was pregnant. Then we found out and I was like, ‘Oh, this is brilliant, everything is coming together’.”<\/p>\n

Chyna added: “At first, I thought he was joking because we play jokes on each other all the time. Then Neil was like, ‘Chyna, so is it a yes or no?’ because a few minutes had passed and he was still on one knee. I was like, ‘Yeah!’<\/p>\n

“After the baby news, we were on cloud nine \u2013 and now this. It still doesn’t feel real.”<\/p>\n

Neil has previously gushed about his now-wife<\/a>, saying on their one-year anniversary: “You make me smile, laugh, cry and fall in love with you every day but if we could get you to a few more Liverpool matches then life would be complete.”<\/p>\n

Strictly Come Dancing will return to the BBC later this year.<\/p>\n
