Even though Charlotte Crosby and Stephen Bear are potentially the most loved-up people on the entire planet at the moment, she's not in the least bit as keen at getting a ring on her finger as most people might assume.

While the pair are moving in together, working together (oh hey, Just Tattoo Of Us series 2) and are on great terms with each other families, the former Geordie Shore gal is keen to play their romance down for the time being.

In an interview with New Magazine, Char explained that she doesn't want to see Bear getting down on one knee until at least 2018, which gives them around a year to pop out that much-discussed baby she's beenplotting.

"I wouldn't like to think about getting engaged until I've been with Stephen for at least a year and a half" she said, before pointing out that they've actually only been official for around "six months" at the moment.

As for thetimeframe on them walking up the aisle, Charrevealed that getting hitched to Bear isn't on her radar for "any time soon" but that it's definitely something she can see happening in the future.

Having her fairly brutal say on couples who leap into wedded blissbefore properly getting to know each other, she added:"It's a total joke getting engaged or married after six months."

Right. Here's hoping Bear doesn't have a ring burning a hole in his pocket because it's clearly going to take some time for Char to formally accept.
