Jack Whitehall kisses Dua Lipa at Brits 2018 after party as the pair cuddle up with close pals of the comedian saying he ‘mega fancies her’
Dua, who won Best British Female and British Breakthrough Act, celebrated her wins by getting close to host Jack
JACK Whitehall celebrated his triumphant Brits hosting debut by kissing double winner Dua Lipa.
The funnyman, 29, was spotted cuddling up and dirty dancing with the New Rules singer during the show’s after-party, sparking talk of a possible new romance.
Dua, who won Best British Female and British Breakthrough Act, split from Paul Klein last January, which was revealed by The Sun’s Bizarre column, while Jack has been single since his break-up with actress Gemma Chan in December.
And according to close pals, Jack made a beeline to Dua because he thinks she’s “incredibly hot.”
A friend said: "Dua is definitely Jack's type and he's always mega fancied her.
";They met years ago and often bump into each other because of work – but Jack would love to spend more time with her.
“He had to catch a flight early yesterday morning so couldn’t stay at the party as long as he would have liked, though hopes Dua will be in touch.”
A fellow party-goer said: “There was no denying the chemistry between them.
“Jack was grinning from ear to ear as they chatted together and Dua clearly loved the attention.
“She couldn’t stop giggling as Jack nestled his head in her neck to give her a cheeky kiss.
“Dua kept rubbing her body against his as they closely danced together – with the pair even holding hands.”
Dua and Jack spent the night flirting at the Brits Warner after party at Covent Garden’s Freemasons’ Hall that was also attended by the likes of Rita Ora, Calvin Harris, Holly Willoughby and Liam Gallagher.
And Jack wasn’t the only man to catch Dua’s eye after she was also seen cosying up to Calvin.
As soon as the DJ arrived she spent the remainder of the night in his company in a dimly lit corner near the bar as gentleman Jack waited patiently for her return.
Jack and Dua ended up leaving the bash at the same time but made their way home separately.

The ceremony, presented by Jack, was dominated by wins for Dua who scooped two gongs on the night.
And while Jack mocked the A-list crowd with gags aimed at Harry Kane, Ed Sheeran, Olly Murs and Ronnie Wood – he refrained from speaking a bad word against Dua.
