Dustin, 43, recently hinted that the couple were hoping to raise a family together during an appearance on BBC's Question Time.

In August last year, Tom shared the first official video from his wedding to Dustin on his YouTube channel. Writing about the clip on Instagram, he told followers: "Our honeymoon feels like the perfect time to finally share our magical day," he wrote. "We know our wedding was only possible thanks to the brave work of countless people for generations before us, so in that tradition, we will donate any revenue from this video to the 'LGBT+ Switchboard' and 'It Gets Better' in hopes of making things even better for future generations.
