CELEBS Go Dating expert Anna Williamson has dropped a huge hint that two celebs have hooked up behind the scenes while filming the brand new series.
In the past, celeb on celeb romances have been frowned upon by Anna and fellow expert Paul Carrick Brunson, but they’ve now had a change of heart.
Filming for the thirteenth series of the E4 dating show is only a few weeks in, and it sounds like a few of the famous faces could already be getting on very well.
Last month we revealed the official 2024 full line up, which consists of Chris Taylor, Helen Flanagan, Ella Morgan, Jamelia, Stephen Lustig-Webb and Tristan Phipps.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Anna said: “Let’s just say all of us agents have raised eyebrows on a few of them that seem to be side eyeing each other a little bit. Nothing concrete.
“But let’s just say, they’re all they’re all a good looking bunch and they’re all starting.
“They’re in the dating process really earnestly and really taking it seriously, and there are some really good matches already coming through.
“The dates we’ve got this series are exceptional.
“Like stella stella dating. I’d date them, they are amazing.
“But they’re a greedy bunch, and they’re going to be looking left and right as well.
“So we will see how that unpacks.
“We haven’t gated anybody, but we’ve also made it very clear to them that no one’s doing this just for s**ts and gigs.
“So if there’s any attractions that are going on, we will jump on it and we will inspect to see if it’s actually something that is worthwhile.”
Last year, the experts decided to welcome any connections between the cast, after years of trying to stop them.
Anna explained: “We’ve kind of evolved over the years, you know? Paul and I used to be very, very, a hard no, on inter dating in the past.
“They’re here to date people that we set them up with. But that’s not reflective of real life. It’s called the Law of Proximity.
“The more that you are spending time with one person, particularly in these very weird reality TV show bubbles, you naturally gravitate to them.
“It’s why shows like Strictly, have the Strictly curse, and Love Island is so successful, because when you are in those concentrated arenas, you very quickly gravitate towards people.”
Last year saw Adam Collard and Lottie Moss had a bit of a thing, after Love Island’s Laura Anderson and Hollyoaks’ Gary Lucy became a couple during series 11.
In earlier years of Celebs Go Dating the likes of Charlotte Dawson and Frankie Cocozza built a connection, and Olivia Attwood and Sam Craske also grew close.

“They’re kind of figuring it out… Are we the real deal? We are.
“And you know, there’s no script on this show.
“We are literally following the actuality that happens. This lot are a credit to the show instead of go dating.
