Scandal AF

It’s got to be hard when you’re a presenter, a host, or a celeb on a dating show with other celebs, not to date the beautiful, talented people that you work with every day.

As it’s rumoured that Caroline Flack is cheating things up with Love Island’s ‘Muggy’ Mike we look back at who else has blurred the professional love lines…

Fans of Love Island are pretty sure that Mike Thalassitisand Caroline Flack are sharing a little bit of a secret romance. At the Love Island reunion after party the pair looked pretty cosy, posting each other all over their Instagram stories. Mike added a snap with the caption: ‘Who really won Love Island [sic]’.

2. Caroline Flack and Harry Styles

In the biggest shock of 2011, the world found out that 32-year old Caroline and 17-year old Harry were in a relationship after he was a contestant on the X Factor where Caroline was presenting the Xtra Factor. SCANDAL.

3. Cheryl and Liam Payne...

Who would have very thunk it eh? Back when Cheryl was a judge on the X Factor and Liam walked into the judges room to sing Cry Me A River. CRAY. Now the 23-year old singer has an actual baby with the 34-year old former Girls Aloud babe. WHAT?

4. Marnie Simpson and Casey Johnson...

MTV

Kind of the whole point of Single AF was that celebs would meet their true love and they would be a regular Joe like us. However Marnie and Casey decided that actually they quite fancied each other and shared ore than one snog. You guyssss.

5. Aubrey O'Day and Pauly D...

Instagram

We've gotSingle AF, and the USA has Famously Single. A bunch of celebs are put into a house and sent on dates with non-famous folk. But just like Casey and Marns, Danity Kane’s Aubrey and Jersey Shore’s Pauly D fell in love and shared a two year relationships until the split recently. SOB.

6. Steph Pratt and Joey Essex...

Another classic celebs meant to be dating regular pees but instead dated each other. We were shocked but also obsessed when The Hills’ Steph got the hots for TOWIE’s Joey. It didn’t last but we loved it while it did.

7. Dec Donnelly and Ashley Roberts...

I’m A Celeb’s Dec swayed away from his true love Ant McPartlin to date 2012 contestant and former Pussycat Doll Ashley in 2013. The fling only lasted a few months but the pair are still mates and she even attended his wedding to next love Ali. Cuuuute.

8. Mailka Haqq and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro...

Instagram

Back we head to Famously Single and series two is not different to season one. Just like Aubrey O’Day from the first series, Khloe Kardashian’s BFF Malika fell for a former Jersey Shore boy. This time it was Ronnie who famously had a dramatic on and off relationship with Sammy Sweetheart. Things didn’t last and we say on KUWTK that as soon as Malika told Khloe about Ronnie, it was pretty much over with her claiming “He was verbally aggressive, physically aggressive.”

9. Rylan Clarke and Dan Neal...

Instagram

After Rylan stole our hearts on X Factor and CBB, a Big Brother contestant and former policeman Dan, swooped in to steal his. They met when Rylan was working as a presenter for Big Brother’s Bit On The Side and Dan was appearing on the main show. The pair wed in 2015 and looked as loved up as ever.

10. Russell Brand and Kate Lawler...

It’s no surprise that Russell hooked up with a few ladies during his time a presenter and also met a Big Brother contestant when he was presenting Bit On The Side. Kate Lawler was the winner of series three and apparently had a short thang with Russ.
