'We're in it for the long haul': Made In Chelsea's smitten Stephanie Pratt and Josh Shepherd discuss marriage and baby plans

Made In Chelsea fans were treated to news Stephanie Pratt and Josh Shepherd were moving in together when the series returned to screens on Monday night.

But it seems that the couple have even bigger plans for the future, after they told HELLO! magazine this week that they're 'in it for the longhaul'.

Stephanie is currently celebrating her 29th birthday on a plush boat in the Bahamas with her British boyfriend after revealing they may be the first MIC couple to tie the knot.

Josh and Steph made the commitment to move into a London pad together six months ago, but tell the magazine that they have plans for a wedding, and even want children some day.  

'We're in it for the long haul,' Chelsea boy Josh tells this week's HELLO! 'Or we would never have decided to live together.'

Fans of the show saw the couple argue over their new living arrangements - a two-bedroom apartment in London - on the season opener this week, as she called it a 'museum' because Josh was too tidy.

But the US beauty gushed about her 'thoughtful, funny, incredibly kind' boyfriend in this week's magazine, saying he was everything she could have ever wished for.

She said: 'If I'd written down everything I wanted in a man when I was younger, Josh would have ticked every box, then added a few more,' says Stephanie, who first found fame in the US reality show The Hills.

'I was tired of dating guys who didn't do anything or expected me to pick up the bill in a restaurant, then go home with them.'

The blonde bombshell, who made her name in MTV's The Hills, has previously dated fellow Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews and US motocross racer Josh Hansen but now admits they were all 'losers.'

Josh and Steph, currently holidaying with his family on a yacht, are pictured hand in hand in the living room of their new apartment in this week's issue.

Stephanie adopted London as her new home last year and poses against Union Jack and stars and stripes cushions proving that there's been a lot of compromise in their relationship.

'The only reason they [previous relationships] don't work out is that nine times out of ten someone has cheated on someone,' Josh continued to HELLO! 'The important thing is to remain loyal and true to each other. Steph and I have no intention of messing things up.'

Ever the ideal boyfriend, Josh appears to have whisked the beauty away for her last big birthday in her twenties, this week.

The couple have been documenting their idyllic trip with a series of picturesque social media snaps, some captioned 'soul mates,' 'loving life' and 'yacht life'.

Josh said on Saturday, 'Happy birthday @stephaniepratt. I love you x'
