Sam and Zara seem to be going from strength to strength after their famously turbulent relationship last year.

In September, Sam revealed that he wanted a baby with his girlfriend in the near future after the couple moved out of their West London home temporarily to complete renovate it.

Sam told MailOnline that Zara cheating on him last year had actually brought them 'closer together' and he didn't want to be a 'really old dad' so wasn't far off starting a family.

He gushed the Love Islander was the girl of his dreams and they were nearly ready to become parents but he did 'need to grow up a bit first'.

Sam said: 'I’ve hit a stage where I’m doing my house up at the moment, I want to make it into a really nice adult home, I’m nearly 30 and I'm with the girl of my dreams.'

'Not in the next year... but not in the too distant future. I don't want to be a really old dad. But I do need to grow up a little bit first.'

The Made In Chelsea star's relationship was thrown into turmoil last year when Zara confessed to being unfaithful.

But Sam quickly rekindled their romance and even made a lighthearted spoof of the Made In Chelsea scene where Zara begged for his forgiveness.
