Sarah Harding's DJ boyfriend Tom Crane has revealed that he plans to marry the Girls Aloud singer and start a family.

The couple have been at the centre of speculation regarding their relationship for several months, but Crane has insisted that they never parted ways.

London Lite quotes him as saying: "I had never really split up with Sarah. It only lasted for one day or so and everyone made such a big deal of it. It's all such a joke.

"Everything you read was so silly, Sarah and I love each other. Our split didn't last long because we get on so well and I know she is faithful to me."

He added: "We have already spoken about starting a large family and marriage and will do so when the time is ready for both of us."
