Katya Jones is "so happy" for her ex-husband Neil Jones after he announced he's engaged and set to become a father for the first time.

The 'Strictly Come Dancing' professional and former Love Islander, Chyna Mills, have just announced they have taken their relationship to the next level with Neil popping the question, while the loved-up pair are also expecting a baby together.

Chyna, 24, told HELLO!: "I can't wait to see Neil as a dad, I can see how happy he is and how good he is with his nieces and nephews."

Neil, 40, who slid into his fiancee's DMs, gushed: "Chyna is going to make a great mum.

"Even now, she sits there and goes: 'Me and our baby know everything about each other."

'Strictly' star Katya - who was married to Neil from 2013 until 2019 - was among their celebrity pals congratulating the couple on their double announcement.

Katya, 33, shared the news on her Instagram Story and wrote: "So happy for these two! @mr_jonesofficial, you deserve all the happiness."

Her split from Neil came after she was photographed kissing comedian Seann Walsh, 37, who was also in a relationship at the time.

However, they insisted that the pair falling victim to the infamous 'Strictly' curse had nothing to do with them ending their marriage.

In a joint statement, Neil and Katya said at the time: "Hi everyone, as our fans and loyal supporters you are really important to us and so we wanted to let you know some news.

"After 11 years, we have made the mutual decision to separate."

A spokesperson for the exes added: "It would be incorrect and unfair to attribute their separation to one isolated incident.

"Many people make such a decision to separate when they realise that their relationship has become more of a friendship. They remain the very best of friends and will continue to dance together."
