    Jonathan Scott and Zooey Deschanel have been having "too much fun" to plan their wedding

    The couple got engaged in August 2023 after four years together but the Celebrity IOU host admitted he and the former New Girl star - who has Elsie, 10, and eight-year-old Charlie with ex-husband Jacob Pechenik - have yet to find the time to set a date for their big day


    Speaking about his new show Chasing the West, Jonathan, 47, told People magazine: "We've just been having so much fun travelling with the kids and filming this show and stuff.

    "So no, we have not actually made any plans yet, which, it's been two years now since I proposed."

    When they do get round to planning their wedding, Jonathan and Zooey, 45, want to keep things "intimate".

    He said: "Whatever we do, it has to be meaningful to us and we want to gather our friends and family and have a good time.

    "We want to keep it very, very intimate."

    While making Chasing the West with his brother Drew Scott made Jonathan miss his own upbringing on a 160-acre property in Canada, he doesn't think Zooey would be particularly keen to uproot their lives from Los Angeles, because of the "dirty work" involved, even if it meant she could spend more time around horses.

    He said: "She's an equestrian. She used to jump. So she loves having horses, loves having space.

    "I think she's not so much into the dirty work of the ranch, but she definitely is into having the space and room to run."

    At the beginning of this year, Jonathan pledged to find the time to "figure out" his wedding plans.

    Asked if they've made any progress with their wedding plans, he told People: "I can guarantee you we have done absolutely zero percent more work. We've just had a lot of things going on.

    He shared: "Maybe that'll be my New Year's resolution - we've got to get this wedding figured out."

    The couple were "very different people" during their younger years but the building expert has suggested that their interests and ambitions have become more closely aligned over recent times.

    He said: "I mean, we've both been married before, but even when we were younger, you're looking for different things, and who knows what we were looking for at that time?"
