They live in leafy Hampstead, North West London, in the borough of Camden.
In October 2016, Kirstie addressed the fascination over her and Ben's reluctance to tie the knot.
She told Woman magazine: "Ben has been married previously and so initially it was he who was reluctant to do it.
"And then I was reluctant to get married because I just think: 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
"I've always said the same thing: there is every likelihood that one day we'll get married, if only for practical reasons. But we're very happy as we are."

Has Kirstie Allsopp ever dated Phil Spencer?
Kirstie and Phil have worked together for over two decades, but there is no romance there, and they are NOT a couple.
The Location, Location, Location and Love It or List It pair are so close that Phil refers to Kirstie as his “other wife” and say his kids are used to having a secondary figure around the house.

Despite their quick banter and heartwarming relationship, Phil has insisted there is nothing but a “natural, platonic relationship” between them, while Kirstie has been keen to make clear that “he’s a really, really nice person”, and has said they were too much like brother and sister to ever be romantically involved.
The pair met for a screen test for the show and found they had a natural connection, which has led them to become firm friends.
