From Tom Rosenthal to Calvin Harris: Vick Hope's Love Life Before Her Glastonbury-Themed Wedding
Vick Hope, the 34-year-old television and radio personality, is currently captivating audiences as the host of the BBC's new talent show, "Made in Korea: The K-Pop Experience." Known for her time as a BBC Radio 1 presenter and her stint on "Strictly Come Dancing," Hope has also made headlines for her high-profile romances, culminating in her recent marriage to superstar DJ Calvin Harris.
Rumours of Hope's engagement to Harris first surfaced in May 2022 when she was spotted sporting a dazzling diamond ring, believed to have cost a cool £1 million. Harris reportedly popped the question at his charming farm in Ibiza, amidst his residency at the Ushuaia Hotel. Hope gushed about the "perfect" proposal, revealing that their love story actually dates back to the early 2000s when she was just 19.
The couple tied the knot in September 2023 in a spectacular Glastonbury-themed wedding celebration at Hulne Priory, Alnwick in Northumberland. The star-studded affair saw a host of famous faces in attendance, including "Big Brother" presenter AJ Odudu, Radio 1 legend Scott Mills, and Channel 4 personality Vernon Kay. The lavish celebration, complete with grand white tents, a stunning firework display, and musical performances, was a testament to the couple's shared love for music and festival culture.
A source told "The Sun" that the wedding was "a day none of their guests will ever forget," with Hope and Harris' vows being "really emotional" and the ceremony featuring poems like Ernest Hemingway's "If Thereâs Empty Spaces In Your Heart" and Lori Eberhai's "Devoted."
While Harris is Hope's current love, her romantic history is equally fascinating. Before her relationship with Harris, Hope was romantically involved with "Plebs" star Tom Rosenthal. Their romance spanned from 2013 to 2017, until Hope reportedly called it quits amidst a "quarter-life crisis."
In an interview on the "When Life Gives You Melons" podcast, Hope confessed, "I've just broken up with my boyfriend of four-and-a-half years because I was thinking, 'Is this right? Is this who I'm going to be with for the rest of my life? If I'm not 100 per cent sure about that, then maybe I should get out'."
Hope's dating history also includes a brief link to "The X Factor" winner Myles Stephenson, a member of the band Rak-Su, and a playful engagement prank with "The Ibiza Weekender" star Jordan Davies.
The whispers of a potential romance with boxing champion Anthony Joshua in 2020 also made headlines. While Joshua confirmed to "The Sun" that they had enjoyed dates, Hope remained coy about the details, stating that "he did not say that... no, he didnât."
From her early beginnings to her whirlwind romance with Harris, Vick Hope's love life has been a captivating journey, showcasing a woman who is not afraid to embrace her own personal growth and make bold choices in matters of the heart.
