Sam also shared an identical post to his Instagram account.
Their relationship, which first began on the hit ITVbe show, had rocky beginnings but since Sam quit TV stardom it seems they have gone from strength to strength.
Back in October of last year Sam, whose sister Billi was also on TOWIE, made the shock announcement to quit the reality show to focus on his and Shelby's "fairytale" relationship away from the "pressure and anxiety" of TOWIE.

He then continued: "…I’m walking away with a smile on my face and a beautiful girl on my arm Thank you everyone at @towie @limepicturestv & @itvbe'.
