Gemma Atkinson, 35, and her Strictly Come Dancing beau Gorka Marquez, 29, welcomed their daughter Mia last year. In their latest clip from their YouTube series, the family trio set out for some lunch before the Hits Radio DJ revealed an awkward mishap on their way to the restaurant.
Speaking in a clip from their YouTube account Gemma & Gorks, the Strictly professional revealed his girlfriend was surprising him with a nice meal.
Gorka explained: “Sunday afternoon it’s a family lunch. We managed to get ready on time. Just 10 to 15 minutes late.
“We’re going for lunch in Manchester to a place that I’ve never been and apparently it’s very good.”
He added: “Gemma surprised me and booked the restaurant for us.”

His girlfriend revealed she too had never been to the restaurant before telling fans of her discovery before they left their house.
“The guys at work recommended [the restaurant]. So if it’s rubbish I’ll blame them,” Gemma remarked.
She then explained why they were running late, saying: “It’s because I found I had poo under my nail just before we set off. I had to run back in.”
Gemma finished: “That’s what happens when you change [your baby] in a hurry.
“I had green poop under my fingernail.”
Gorka complimented his lady love admitting she looks “flawless” regardless of the baby changing mishap.
The YouTube video comes just hours after the Strictly professional shared some sad news.
Gorka announced that his dance show, Firedance, alongside his co-star Karen Hauer had been postponed amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The Spanish hunk admitted he was “regretful” that the show had to be put on hold but people’s health and safety was a priority.
In view of his 503,000 Instagram followers, the performer shared a lengthy statement.
Gorka wrote: “To our amazing fans and specifically those who have purchased tickets to the performance of Firedance.
“It is with regret that due to the escalating situation with regard to coronavirus in the UK and the subsequent venue closures, the upcoming Karen & Gorka: Firedance performances due to take place will not be going ahead as planned.”
He continued: “We are gutted as we have had the most amazing time performing for you all on tour however health and safety must come first.
“We hope to be able to announce more information in the near future on the rescheduled shows and customers are advised to retain their tickets.
“In the meantime, stay safe and keep well, Karen & Gorka.”
The Strictly dancer is one of many of his fellow colleagues who have recently had to postpone shows amid the current global pandemic.
