She later added that she plans to have a large bridal party. “Ricky has four sisters so I’ll definitely be asking them, and I’ll also have my Geordie Shore housemates Chloe Ferry, Holly Hagan and Charlotte Crosby too.” Ricky reportedly popped the question in June after the pair had been dating for six months.
