Even though it’s strictly forbidden by the celebrity dating agency, those Celebs Go Dating stars just can’t help getting it on with each other instead of us normal folk they’re supposed to be dating.
First we had Joey Essex and Stephanie Pratt’s romance, then Charlotte Dawson coupled up with The X Factor’s Frankie Cocozza, and most recently it was rumoured that Made in Chelsea star Olivia Bentley is dating Joshua Ritchie.
Reports claimed the pair had been seeing each other since February but Olivia has broken her silence on the rumours to insist her and Josh are just mates and have been for a while.
It was reported that things were getting “serious” between the reality stars, with a source telling MailOnline, “Josh and Olivia have been getting on like a house on fire. They started seeing each other in secret at the beginning of February and their romance has really blossomed. Until recently they had really tried to keep their feelings for each other private for the sake of the show.”
However, Olivia told The Sun, “No, we’re not [together]. I’ve actually known Josh for like five years.”
