\'Over the moon\' Marc plans Christmas love-in with Cerys

'Over the moon' Marc plans Christmas love-in with Cerys Marc Bannerman says he's "over the moon" now that he's back in the arms of Cerys Matthews, and the pair have wasted no time mapping out their future, which includes plans to spend Christmas together.
The I'm A Celebrity pair, who have been ducking photographers after reuniting in Wales last week, used a glossy magazine cover to debut their full fledged romance today, with Marc declaring: “I've loved every minute with her”.
The actor travelled to Cerys' home in west Wales last week for a romantic retreat - and accompanying magazine photo shoot - after splitting from Sarah Matravers, his girlfriend of two years.
He has launched headlong into a relationship with the Catatonia singer and has already spent time bonding with her children.
Mother of two Cerys says: "He's going to help me put Christmas decorations up with the kids."
Marc adds: "Yes I am, I feel so soppy."
Since reuniting, Cerys admits she is "still getting tummy flips," and Marc says that even despite the drama, "it's all worth it."
Still, there time together has not been without incident - Marc was arrested and released on bail pending further inquiries into an alleged altercation with paparazzi outside the Ship Inn in Trefin, Pembrokeshire.
The ex factor also looms large over the pair, with Cerys, who recently divorced musician Seth Riddle, admitting she feels guilt towards Marc's former girlfriend.
She says: "We didn't intend for it to happen. We even tried to stop it from happening in order not to hurt anyone."
"It completely took me by surprise. One minute we were collecting wood together and then there was this connection."
Of his high profile split, Marc says: "I never cheated on anyone, I just fell in love with someone else.
"I just hope to God [Sarah] can move on... she must be in a really dark place right now and I'm sorry that I've put her there.
"I'm shocked that she's doing everything so publicly. I don't blame her for being angry but if you love someone you don't do this to them.
"If the roles were reversed I'd be happy for her."
Sarah, who starred in Footballers Wives: Extra Time, claims she and Marc were trying for a baby before he entered the jungle, and says she was left "devastated" after the relationship came to an end.
She swiftly moved out of the flat they shared in north London, branding Marc "cold-hearted and incredibly screwed up".
She concluded: "They deserve each other. I hope they rot in hell."
Marc told OK! magazine that returning to London after his dalliance in the jungle was "pretty morbid and sad," adding, "my house had been demolished, everything was taken and some nasty things have been written about me."
He denies he went into hiding after returning to the capital, insisting he was simply staying with friends to give Cerys room to decide if she wanted to be with him.
Marc talked down tabloid reports which claimed he was unfaithful to Sarah during their partnership and also denied he has an alcohol problem.
Despite the string of allegations - the latest of which allege the actor hired a prostitute and took cocaine - the couple remain together at the farmhouse owned by Cerys' parents.
Marc, who described his first kiss with Cerys as "amazing," has no intention of leaving her side.
Cerys revealed her plans for the pair to learn Japanese together and jet off on safari, but insists it's too soon to talk about the prospect of marriage.
She says: "We're amazed by everyone's interest, but it's a bit early to be thinking about that.
"We're just hoping that we'll have the time and the peace to get to know each other away from the spotlight."
The whirlwind romance has come under intense scrutiny, with critics dismissing the romance as a merely a money grabbing publicity stunt.
Marc hit back at the claims, saying: "I can't understand why anyone would think I would be shallow or stupid enough to do it as a publicity stunt.
"Someone has been hurt in all o f this so why would I want to ruin one relationship for the sake of it?"
The pair said they were both incredibly nervous ahead of their post-jungle reunion, and compared their initially tentative behavior to that of love struck teenagers.
Cerys also revealed that while she was disappointed Marc wasn't there meet her in Australia following her eviction as he'd promised, she'd accepted it was the right decision.
She concludes: "It's fantastic we're out together now so we can get to know each other again."
