They have become the most talked about celebrity couple after the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge this year.
So with the absence of Kate and William at last night's Bafta nominees party, who better to send along than Mark Wright and Lauren Goodger.
But this time, without the rest of the cast joining them en masse, the betrothed couple were able to have a night out alone.
Of course, they were there to represent their fellow Essexians, after the show was nominated for the BAFTA YouTube Audience Award.
Mark and Lauren, who have been dating on-and-off for the past decade, arrived at the nominees party at Coutts & Co headquarters on the Strand last night.
Lauren looked gorgeous in an asymmetrical long black dress, which a sexy split up her left thigh and a diamante decorated hole on her left hip.

Mark looked equally as sexy in a light grey suit, as he proudly held his fiancée close to him.
And he didn't let go of her all night as they mingled with fellow nominees.
They also made the most of their night alone with a romantic dinner at Hakkasan in Mayfair.

It was nice to see them so close after recent events left The Only Way Is Essex viewers wondering if Lauren had had enough of her party boy husband-to-be.
In the last episode of the reality TV show, the pair had a huge row at the pool party to celebrate the end of the series, before Lauren pushed Mark in the swimming pool and then angrily walked away.
But they soon put paid to rumours that they had called their engagement off following a dramatic argument shown on-screen last night, by arriving hand-in-hand and smiling broadly.
