Mica and Marcus met each other a number of years ago when their paths crossed at church. Although it wasn't love at first sight for Mica, it was for Marcus, and the boxing coach had his sights on her straight away.

As Marcus explained to Heat, Mica had signed up to a specific course at the church, so he followed suit. "But then she tried to set me up with some other girls from the course. She wasn't interested," the gym owner said.

Having been on the show for nearly four years, Mica and Marcus are clearly adored by viewers and more recently, Mica received a wealth of praise from viewers at home after opening up about her battle with alopecia.

The mother-of-three revealed in a recent episode that she has the condition while discussing the moment Will Smith defended his wife Jada Pinkett Smith at the Oscars after Chris Rock made a joke about her hair.

Weighing in on the GI Jane comment that caused Will's controversial slap, Mica said: "I don't really think it was worth the slap." However, Marcus was quick to side with Will, who he argued was only defending his wife, saying: "I've seen how you feel about your alopecia at times. A woman's crown is a woman's crown."

Taking to Twitter after the episode, one viewer wrote: "Bless @MicaAndTheGang - you always look fire your crown is perfect."

Another said: "Mica and Marcus have the best reaction yet to The Slap," and a third added: "Marcus and Mica have been brill tonight #Gogglebox."
