It comes as Denise’s friends think there could be wedding bells for the actress in the coming year. 

  Denise recently found love again with Jimmy following her split from Eddie Boxshall.

The star ended her relationship with commodities trader Eddie back in January this year after discovering unfaithful messages.

In July, she went public with her property developer boyfriend Jimmy and the pair have since enjoyed their first holiday together after jetting to Marbella.

Denise explained how she didn’t want to go public until the relationship was ‘solid’ so instead the couple way stay in and chat for hours.

And her friends certainly think he’s the one, as they think that he’ll pop the question to Denise next year.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Nobody who knows Denise and Jimmy would be the least bit surprised if they got engaged next year.

‘She’s been friends with him for a long, long time – but it’s developed into something really special.’
