Geordie Shore’s Holly Hagan is secretly dating professional footballer Jacob Blyth and is ‘completely smitten’

HOLLY Hagan is secretly dating professional footballer Jacob Blyth, The Sun Online can reveal.

The former Geordie Shore star is “smitten” with the Motherwell FC player and has told pals she’s “happier than ever” after the pair became close.

Since The Sun Online revealed Holly had called time on her three-year romance with her co-star Kyle Christie in March, the 25-year-old has been travelling the world.

However it seems Jacob could be the one she wants to come home to after he caught her eye when they partied together with pals on holiday.

A friend of Holly’s told The Sun Online: “It’s early days but Holly is smitten with Jacob and it’s obvious he feels the same about her.

“They make a gorgeous couple and their mates think they’re perfect for each other.

“Holly doesn’t want to rush into anything with Jacob because she’s enjoying travelling around the world  but there’s definitely a spark there.

“Right now they’re just seeing how it’s going and spending time together.”

Holly and Jacob have spent the past few weeks together and even celebrated her birthday as a couple.

While Jacob shared a picture of the two together, neither have made their relationship public.

The striker now plays for Motherwell after a brief career at former Premier League champions Leicester.

He was released last year and signed a two year deal with the Scottish team.

Holly will spend the rest of this year continuing her travels around the world.

Jacob will have to return to Scotland soon to start training again before the season starts in August.
