Demi Sims’ dating life has been at the centre of a lot of speculation since her break-up with Too Hot to Handle’s Francesca Farago.
Most recently, Demi has been linked to Geordie Shore’s Bethan Kershaw after they were spotted kissing outside a hotel in Mayfair.
Unfortunately, shortly after, both Bethan and Demi took to Instagram to deny any rumours of a romance between them. The TOWIE star told fans, “We’re both single, we’re both on our own journeys of finding ourselves at the moment.”
She continued, “And don’t get me wrong me and Bethan have spoken in the past and when we are with each other we are all over each other, like we just have a really flirty relationship and that’s what it was the other night, it was just really flirty and stuff.
“But that doesn’t mean we are in a relationship, no, but I do love her. I’ve got a lot of time for Bethan.”

In a post on her Instagram story, the Geordie Shore star said, “So, basically the situationship with Demi… me and Demi, we’re really good friends. We’re friends that have a little bit of a flirt, a little bit of a neck on but we’re not in a serious, committed relationship,”
