Caroline and Olly work together on The X Factor.

He told The Sun on Sunday: “Simon wants Olly and Caroline to get together. He’s always trying to make them admit they fancy each other and make things awkward for them.

“They have this incredible chemistry. There’s not a presenting duo around that has that kind of bond.”

Melvin continued: “They know what the other is thinking and they are always laughing and joking on set – but there is that kind of will-they, won’t-they tension which they’ve always acknowledged and played with.”

Guess we’ll just have to stay tuned to see if something happens…
