TOWIE star Lucy Mecklenberg has confirmed that she is in a relation with Louis Smith.
The couple met when the reality star appeared on celebrity gymnastics show
Splash and are believed to have been dating for several weeks.
Mecklenburgh posted a photo of herself and the Olympic gymnast on Instagram with the caption 'Sunday Snuggles', seemingly confirming their romance.
Insiders say that the pair began flirting as the series was filmed but Lucy was originally unsure about Louis due to his height.
"There were lots of rumours about Louis and Lucy when he was judging Tumble and she was a contestant,’ a source told
The Sun’s TV Biz.
"It’s true they were flirting but nothing happened.
Louis got with someone straight after Tumble but they split and he bumped into Lucy. She must have forgotten about his size because sparks flew and they started dating. The way things are looking they could be together for a long time."
