Lucy Mecklenburgh is rumoured to be dating Louis Smith after they met on the set of Tumble.
Former The Only Way Is Essex star Lucy was a contestant on the dance and gymnastics show and Olympian Louis was a judge.
While they weren’t an item then, it seems things have now stepped up a notch, with a source telling The Sun they are dating.
The insider said: “There were lots of rumours about Louis and Lucy when he was judging Tumble and she was a contestant. It’s true they were flirting but nothing happened.”
The source went on: “Louis got with someone straight after Tumble but they split and he bumped into Lucy.”
The insider claimed Lucy was initially not keen because gymnast Louis isn’t as tall as the men she usually likes.
“She must have forgotten about his size because sparks flew and they started dating,” the source went on. “The way things are looking they could be together for a long time.”
A few weeks ago Louis shared a photo on Instagram of himself with Lucy, apparently on a night out.
He captioned the shot: “Look who I found.. @lucymeck1. She looks just as good in a dress as she does in a leotard #tumble.”
