Coronation Street legend Chris Quinten's stripper fiance, 21, licks his face at their engagement party

CORONATION Street legend Chris Quinten's stripper fiance licked his face as they celebrated at their engagement party.

Robyn Delabarre, 21, cheekily held the 61-year-old actor's face as they posed for a snap before enjoying a few drinks with pals at Secrets strip club in Hammersmith last night.

The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other as they were snapped arriving at the venue where they first met.

Robyn was later spotted treating her fiance to a private show as she took to the pole to demonstrate some of her moves, before taking a seat on his lap to pose for photos.

Chris and Robyn met while Robyn was working at the gentlemen’s club and he popped the question at her recent 21st birthday bash in front of family and friends.

The actor – who found fame playing Gail Platt's murdered husband Brian Tilsley in the ITV soap – got down on one knee for Robyn just seven months after meeting.



Robyn and former soap star Chris had kept their romance under wraps before going public at the West London branch of Secrets where Robyn works as a dancer and Chris is manager.

A video, exclusively obtained by The Sun Online, featured him asking her: "Robyn, marry me.”

A shocked Robyn screamed yes as their friends and family cheered.

Chris then whisked Robyn off for a romantic break in Mykonos to celebrate their engagement.

Robyn gushed: "My husband to be! It’s been a CRAZY 7 months a secret we had to keep because of our jobs but you have made me the happiest girl alive.



"You're amazing to me. I’m so lucky to have you in my life. I’m so glad you're mine, I love you and I couldn’t care less what anyone has to say.

"I love you with all my heart. Thank you for doing everything you do for me Chris."

Speaking on This Morning just days after their engagement, the stripper explained how her parents were left horrified when they found out about her engagement to the actor, who is 40 years her senior.

She explained: "The family found it really difficult at first but now they're so supportive of me. The age gap is a big thing. It's like: 'Oh', you know?"

And when Holly Willoughby asked her parents age, she replied: "My mum is 38 and my dad's 40."

Chris added: "I could be your grandad. I've spoken to the mum and they all love me, thankfully. We haven't spoken to dad yet but he's OK."

However, despite the age gap, the loved-up pair are already set on having babies and even have a name picked out for their future child, with Chris telling The Mirror: "She found out my mum was called Thelma and she loves that name so we are thinking of that for our first daughter."

Robyn added: "He only has daughters so I would like to give him a boy. I put our age gap aside when it comes to thinking of children.

"It’s never going to work if I think about it, so I’m just going to try to have a baby."

Chris was one of Coronation Street's biggest stars in the 80s where he played Gail's husband Brian after arriving on the cobbles in 1978.

He asked producers to make him a part-time character so he could move to America to marry his first wife, the US talk show host Leeze Gibbons, but they rejected his offer and instead killed Brian off in a brutal stabbing in 1989.

After getting a small role in Robocop 2, Chris struggled for acting work on screen, last appearing in Doctors in 2000 and playing a stripper in The Young Person's Guide to Becoming a Rock Star in 1998.
