And it seems that over their past year together, Christine has really got to know the real Ray.
She said: 'Ray’s number one in my life – and his number one is his football. Yeah I know that is the truth.'
While Christine was anxious about the screaming at the match, Ray reassures her he will take great care of her and even teaches her the Leeds United chant on the train.
‘We call it the church because we sing a song that’s a bit like a hymn,' he explained.
While Ray was hoping a visit to his favourite football team would help him win the way to Christine's heart, she had other ideas.
She told him: 'If they score, you’re going to get a massive kiss.'
Luckily for Ray, Leeds got the winning goal in the 88th minute of the match. 'Brilliant,' beamed Ray, after they kissed: 'You're the best woman I’ve ever had.'
