A source said: “Candice is a huge star after Bake Off and people are fascinated with her life.

“Hello! has already approached the couple. It would easily cover all the costs so they could do something really special.

“But Candice is actually really normal and overwhelmed by the attention so hasn’t made any commitment.”

The couple live in Bedford and Candice has described Liam as “my biggest fan”.

She added: “He is such a support. I’m very, very lucky to have him.”

But a year before they met in April 2012, Liam was serving 16 months in jail for dealing cannabis.

He and an accomplice were arrested with £7,000 worth of drug as they drove from Edinburgh to Inverness in 2009.
