However Oti's sister, Strictly judge Motsi Mabuse, questioned the date as she thought it was their eight-year anniversary instead. "Six years I thought eight years," she commented, adding: "Congratulations lol still going to check my timeline."
Oti, 30, rarely speaks about her private life in public, however, she will occasionally give a glimpse into her relationship with her husband - who she married in 2014.
Like his wife, Marius is a professional dancer but hails from Romania. He performed on Strictly in the group numbers in 2017, but he has never landed a pro dancer role on the BBC show.
In a previous interview with the Guardian, Oti gushed about the early days of their romance. "When I switched from engineering to dancing, Marius was the first guy that I started dancing with," she revealed. "We competed together, ended up dating, and then we got engaged."
