Sharing a selfie-style video with her husband Marius Iepure, Oti said: "Did you get me a surprise, even in lockdown?" "I love them, I love them," she added, before dropping a bit of a bombshell to fans. "Here's the thing. I'm allergic. So even though I love them, I can't touch them."

Oti and Marius share a home in London, although on Tuesday the professional dancer travelled to Leeds to film Steph's Packed Lunch with former BBC presenter Steph McGovern. "Got my flowers and went straight to Leeds," Oti quipped in another post.
