Speaking about his ‘transatlantic’ accent, the musician, quipped: ‘Well my partner is American and she hasn’t understood a word I’ve said in eight years. She hasn’t got a clue!

‘I think what happens is when you’re from where I’m from and you do interviews with people who aren’t – people just look at you and go, what are you saying? I think the accent begins to soften, and I left home at 17.’

The couple began dating in 2013, after being introduced by mutual friends, they got engaged in 2013 and although they called off the wedding in 2015, they rekindled their relationship the following year.

Johnny added: ‘We were apart as many people were apart from their families and loved ones, but we were able to stay as connected as we could and both of us dived into being creative. 

‘She made her show and a new product line, and I made Bad Habits with Ed [Sheeran], so we were able to stay really productive even if it was tough being apart – and it was tough, but we don’t have the toughest lives in the world – we’re so lucky.

Looking towards the future with Courteney, Johnny joked that her wouldn’t be able to afford Ed Sheeran at their wedding.
