Billie Faiers thinks sister Sam will get engaged to boyfriend Paul Knightley this year as she prepares for her own Maldives wedding

BILLIE Faiers thinks her sister Sam's boyfriend Paul Knightley will propose this year.

The Mummy Diaries star, 29 - who is about to marry fiance Greg Shepherd - also reckons her younger sister will tie the knot in 2020.

She told Star magazine: "I think Paul will propose this year and you'll get married next year."

But Sam didn't think boyfriend Paul - with whom she shares son Paul, three, and daughter Rosie, one - would ask for her hand in marriage quite so soon.

The former Towie star dished: "Not this year but I definitely think in the next couple of years Paul will propose.

"In between him proposing and and us getting married I don't think we'll leave it very long."

Billie - who has been engaged to long-time partner Greg since 2014 - then joked: "You won't have a five-year long engagement like me."

Sam recently made the cheeky revelation that she and businessman Paul "have sex all over the house" because their son still shares their bed with them.

Yesterday the sisters joined their loved ones to board a flight out of London's Gatwick Airport ahead of Billie's wedding in the Maldives.

However furious passengers exclusively told The Sun Online that their big day was almost jeopardised because step-dad Dave Chatwood was too drunk to board a flight.

They told us: "Billie's stepdad has been refused on the flight because he was too drunk and all the flights were delayed because of him," one furious passenger exclusively told The Sun Online.

"He delayed everything after that and other passengers were fuming when they saw what was going on."

It's thought that distraught Billie and her family begged staff to pull some strings and eventually Dave was finally let onto the flight with just days to go before her wedding.
