Last year they were seen holding hands and were even snapped leaving the TV Choice Awards together arm-in-arm. But gorgeous Jac quashed rumors her and Dan were enjoying a romance at the time when fans asked if they were friends or a couple, and she replied: “Friends”

In May they were caught spending an outing together and Jac kept saying they were only friends but its now a done deal, they are officially a couple and just to have an idea of how serious they are, the news has even been posted to his website.

Dan became a dad to baby Teddy in January, but is adamant he won’t be reconciling with the mother of his son, Megan Tomlin. Fatherhood is something the 22-year-old has revealed, it has changed him for the better, saying there are more important things than flirting with girls.
