BIG Brother star Marcus has made a BIG gesture over his feelings for girlfriend Elsa.
The reality TV duo – who fell for each other on the small screen – have cemented their love with a jaw-dropping romantic display.
Elsa and Marcus shared their happy news on social media.
The loved-up pair posted a glimpse into their lives just days after the BB final.
They shared pictures and videos inside a plush hotel room in Manchester, covered from floor to ceiling with red heart balloons and red rose petals leading towards the double bed.
On one of the balloons was written ‘Will you be my girlfriend?’ alongside the Dirty Dancing track (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life.
The hit reality series saw Elsa and Marcus’ love story blossom and drop the L-bomb while in the house.
During the show’s finale week, they both confessed their love for each other.
Mechanical engineer Marcus, 22, opened up in the diary room and told Big Brother: “I’m in love with Elsa,” while Elsa told her housemates how she felt.
Their relationship became one of the most talked-about subjects on this year’s series – although some fans claimed it was a “showmance”.
Viewers watched sparks fly during the reality TV show and a romance develop with the Manchester lad.
His grand gesture happened following the Big Brother finale which saw Cameron, Elsa, Richard, Tate, Jenny and Emily go head to head to take the victory.
But it was Richard who the public picked as their Big Brother winner, with them scooping the £100,000 prize.
This year’s show had its fair share of controversy, with housemate George kicked out after ‘unacceptable language and behaviour’.
The Sun later revealed parish councillor George was told he wasn’t welcome at the final.
And now show bosses have dropped a major hint that the fly-on-the-wall show is set to return for 2026.

Elsewhere, BB presenter AJ Odudu has revealed the surprising reason she decided to ‘hard launch’ her fiance after the couple got engaged.
Big Brother host AJ, 37, very rarely discusses her personal life and shocked fans when she revealed in June that not only was she in a relationship but she was also set to tie the knot.
Flashing her ring, AJ told the Loose Women: “It’s so funny because actually… I only even did the hard launch because I obviously got this amazing ring and I was taking it off and putting it back on, on and off…
“I thought, ‘I’m going to lose this ring if I don’t just tell everyone’. So I just did it all in one go.
“I tend to keep my private life really private. I guess the hard launch had to happen because I didn’t want to lose the ring.”
