He and Hanni have been dating since 2017, after meeting on the soap when she worked in the press office.

She later became a storyliner on the ITV show, before quitting to work as a fashion influencer.

Last year, Jack detailed a terrifying fireball incident which occurred during a weekend away in the Lake District with Hanni.

The couple were staying in a cabin in a remote location with a hot tub and log fire and arrived with the help of his phone torch light as it was already getting dark.

They decided that they wanted to use the tub so Jack moved to try and get it started but it was not quite what he expected and it was harder still because of the rain.

He revealed that he was using lighter fluid to try and get a log fire hot tub working during his Valentine’s break with Hanni but that it blew up in his hand.

Jack added that there was a shoot with a hatch that he had to open, dropping logs and kindling down and hoping it caught.

Speaking on the Sofa Cinema Club podcast, he said: ‘I’m trying to light this kindling in my hand while craning my neck to hold onto the brolly to stop water from dousing out the flames.’

He shared that things soon became terrifying after he decided to use lighter fluid because he thought it would be a simpler way of powering up the hot tub.

Jack said: ‘Just as I’m pouring the lighter fluid down, of course I’ve got a bit of flame and it comes back up. Eyebrows. Brolly. And then the flame goes in the bottle. I had to drop the whole f***ing thing in.

‘The whole thing went in and then it goes up like it’s 5th November. I’m lucky I’ve still got my face.’

He revealed that it had blown up in his hand and he realised he should have put the lighter fluid down before dropping a match.
