Nadiya Hussain admits she LIKES her husband now after arranged marriage when she was 19
The baking ace and hubby Abdal are planning a second ceremony to celebrate their love
BAKE Off queen Nadiya Hussain has revealed she wants a second marriage to husband Abdal - because she actually LIKES him now.
The cake ace's parents had picked her groom for her during an arranged marriage when she was just a teenager.
Opening up on their nuptials, which took place when she was 19, Nadiya said: "We've had the Islamic marriage but we want to have the proper ceremony now.
"Last time I didn't even get to pick my dress, flowers or even the groom.
"Plus, I actually quite like my husband now, so I will mean the vows.
"He still has a fat arse though. It was the first thing I noticed."
The cheeky BBC culinary whizz, now 32, added to Notebook Magazine: "My sister saw him on our wedding morning.
"My nephew ran into him and when she bent down to pick him up she had this big butt in her face.
"She ran upstairs to tell me, utterly horrified.
"The fat a*** remains to this day."
Mum-of-three Nadiya did confess, despite Abdal's shapely booty, he does clock up a lot of attention from females since winning the show.
She confessed he is the first to be spotted when the pair go out shopping.
Comments about her other half have even spilled over onto social media, and she revealed: "Every now and again he gets these Tweets from ladies
he'll say 'this girl says I'm hot. Look. She must be six years younger than you. At least!'
"All proud of himself."

Last year, Nadiya opened up on the details of her strict Islamic wedding - and said she cried throughout.
She branded it one of the WORST days of her life as she revealed she wasn't allowed to look happy, due to religious traditions.
The winner of the hit BBC show, which has now switched to rival broadcaster Channel 4, said: "I have to say my wedding day was one of the worst days of my life.
"I was an emotional wreck and I cried through the whole thing. I didn’t smile very much. You are literally on show and it’s something I was always really uncomfortable with. The bride will often keep her head down. I never really understood it.]
Nadiya added: “It’s bizarre a bride is unhappy on her wedding day, when really she should be happy.”
Memories of her nuptials were again sparked during her recent TV series, The Chronicles of Nadiya.
The sweet-toothed TV star visited her home country of Bangladesh and the wedding of her distant cousin, Jasmine, which sparked her contemplative state.
As well as the ceremony, she will be seen all smiles in intimate family moments with her husband and wider family.
Despite being glum on her big day the bubbly baker is relishing married life.
She confessed her other half serenades her with Counting Crows classic Accidentally in love every single day after they chose the track for their wedding day dance.
