Exciting times: Kimberley has never made a secret of her desire to start a family
She said: 'I always sort of saw it happening after Girls Aloud finished [earlier this year]. I didn't want getting married to get lost in everything else. Justin knew that and would never have asked me when he knew it wasn't the right time.
'But he does really want to get married at some point and it will happen. I've never been one of those girls who wanted a big extravagant wedding, though, so I think I'll be more, "Can we just do this really quickly please and really simply?" '
But Kimberley added that after 10 years,she is keen not to rush into walk down the aisle.
She said: 'We're not too bothered about the whole marriage thing. It's still pretty good after 10 years, we try to keep the fire alive.
'You do different things for each other after 10 years, you know if you get in and have a bath run with candles, I'm happy with that.'
