BACK IN BUSINESS
Love Island host Caroline Flack has been secretly dating Apprentice contestant Andrew Brady
CAROLINE FLACK is getting down to business with Apprentice contestant ANDREW BRADY.
I can reveal the Love Island host has been secretly dating the wannabe business guru — who is 12 years her junior — since he left the Celebrity Big Brother house last month.
17
They met during a night out in East London and have been inseparable ever since.
A source said: “Caroline is enjoying her time with Andrew, he’s a good laugh but she also finds him really attractive.
“Their link-up has surprised some of her pals, as he’s not her usual type. But she’s happy just to see where the romance goes.”
Andrew was a former project engineer in the aerospace industry before he tried his luck on The Apprentice last autumn.

He may have failed to impress LORD SUGAR on the hit BBC1 reality show, but he certainly caught Caroline’s eye.
During his time in the contest he was best known for a rumoured fling with fellow contestant Anisa Topan — who was ten years older than him and engaged.
17
He was fired by Lord Sugar in week eight.
Still, Andrew’s antics secured him a place on the recent CBB.
Again he got a name for his flirty behaviour. This time it was his tactile relationship with drag act Courtney Act, aka SHANE JENEK. Although they insisted they were just good friends.
Caroline — whose exes include HARRY STYLES, PRINCE HARRY and SAM SMITH’s manager JACK STREET — won’t be making her new relationship public by taking Andrew to the Brits tonight at London’s O2 Arena.
17
Instead they are continuing to keep their dates private — just like on Monday night, when they went to the cinema to see The Shape Of Water.
Andrew is her first boyfriend since artist and illustrator BLUE LOGAN, who she split up with last year just three months after they went public as an item.
Is this the moment Caroline Flack confirms 'secret romance' with Love Island's Muggy Mike?
After that, Caroline decided to take a break from dating.
She said at the time: “Since my twenties I had moved from one relationship to the next.
"Never had I given myself time to heal. Something had to change.
“Essentially, I put myself into relationship rehab.”
She’s definitely out of that now.

Movie icon Marilyn famously serenaded PRESIDENT JOHN F KENNEDY with a breathy version of the song before his birthday in 1962.
On Monday night, Kate perched on the edge of the giant cake in a sequin gown. But unlike Marilyn, she failed to stay classy for long.
The model struggled to remain upright or keep her eyes open as she left the do hosted by vodka brand Ciroc in honour of her close friend’s birthday.
At least there was plenty of cake to go round.

AUSSIE boyband 5SOS are back after three years with new single Want You Back, which is due out on Friday.
Drummer ASHTON IRWIN said: “I know my grandma is gonna be all fired up about these new tasty jams.”
Has Ed wed?
ED SHEERAN may have already tied the knot with his Perfect woman.
The singer only announced their engagement four weeks ago but has sparked speculation he has secretly married childhood sweetheart Cherry Seaborn by flashing this band on his ring finger while strumming his guitar on stage in London on Monday.
17
He was performing an intimate show in aid of charity War Child, held at Indigo in the O2 Arena. It is part of Brits Week, leading up to the awards tonight, also at the arena.
Ed has been dating Cherry for two and a half years after meeting her at school in Suffolk.
He announced the news he had proposed on Instagram in January, writing: “Got myself a fiancée just before new year.”
Perhaps another social media announcement will be made soon?

KESHA has cancelled tour dates Down Under next month after injuring her knee.
She wrote on Instagram on Tuesday: “I have to follow doctor’s orders and undergo surgery to repair my torn ACL so I can give it my all on my summer tour.”
And the winners aren't...
NEW Brits host JACK WHITEHALL has threatened an Oscars-style Envelopegate scandal to make sure his favourite acts of all time win.
The funnyman takes over from DERMOT O’LEARY and EMMA WILLIS at the helm of Wednesday nights' ceremony at London’s O2 Arena.

And if he has his way, his debut as host could spark a chart revival from some familiar faces.
In an exclusive interview, Jack joked: “I’d like to give the awards to people who will genuinely appreciate them.
“For International Group I want THE SUNSTROKE PROJECT, better known as the Moldovan entry to the Eurovision song contest or Epic Sax Guy.
“And as for Best Male Solo Artist, people say The Brits have gone so ITV, so I’d love to stick with that and give it to PETER ANDRE. The reaction in the room would be amazing.”

He also wants Now That’s What I Call Music! 96 to win Best Album.
And he’s hoping to hand boyband 5IVE a lifetime achievement award. He said: “I think they would appreciate it a lot more than OASIS or BLUR.
“We’ve been in touch and they are very pleased I’m a fan. I know they’re up for it.”
I’m not surprised.

Mark goes with the flo
FLORENCE + THE MACHINE have turned to MARK RONSON to spearhead a comeback.
We last heard from them in 2015 with No1 album How Big How Blue How Beautiful, and after Flo and Mark worked on a track for LADY GAGA’s Joanne album, the pair have teamed up on her new record. It has more of a pop feel, with a batch of potentially huge singles.
A source said: “Flo and Mark really gelled in the studio and wanted to work together more. Mark has a proven track record for creating hits so Flo is really excited.”
JAMIE XX is also working on the album, which should arrive before the summer. Great news for barbecues.

Cara and Paris don't care who sees
JUST two months ago they were sneaking out of clubs via fire escapes.

The couple, who I revealed had got close after spending the run-up to Christmas together, reunited for a night out with friends before heading to their hotel.
They were celebrating supermodel Cara closing Burberry’s London Fashion Week show, where she wore a floor-length, rainbow-coloured coat and oversized flares.
She’d have had a tough job sneaking out the back door in that.

- HOT DOG: TOWIE’s PETE WICKS doesn’t use his pooch Eric to win over women – because he’s too cute. He said in Now: “I don’t use him as a tactic. Birds are more interested in the dog than they are in me. When I’m out with Eric, people don’t give a monkey’s about me.”
