BBC bosses have reportedly urged Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton to put an end to the speculation and confirm their relationship following their cozy appearance at the Pride of Britain Awards.
The Morning Live presenters have been fueling rumors of a blossoming romance for months, but their affectionate red carpet display at the awards show on Monday night has sparked fresh excitement.
For Helen, 42, and Gethin, 47, the chemistry was undeniable as they posed together, looking every bit the couple. It now seems the BBC is eager to get clarity on the situation, with insiders revealing they want the pair to officially confirm whether they are indeed an item or not.
āThis has been going on long enough,ā a source shared. āThereās a growing feeling within the BBC that itās time for Helen and Gethin to be clear with the viewers. The red carpet display only deepens the confusion. Itās no longer fair to keep the speculation going.ā
Rumors of their romance first emerged in May when insiders revealed the pair had grown close behind the scenes. Gethin even spoke about their bond, saying, āWe are very supportive of each other, and we like to look out for one another.ā
While their relationship was initially warm and friendly, it began to heat up over the summer. In June, the two were spotted at a spa together, fueling rumors that their connection was turning romantic. However, reports soon surfaced that their romance had ācooled off,ā especially after Gethin was spotted on the dating app Raya in Australia.
A source claimed at the time: āHeās there with friends, but heās also looking to meet new women. Thereās no way Helen would stand for that if they were officially a couple.ā
Despite the ups and downs, it now appears that Gethin and Helen are ready to publicly acknowledge their relationship, following their affectionate display at the prestigious awards show.
Helen, who recently split from her husband, rugby star Richie Myler, seems to have found new love with Gethin, while he too has had a string of high-profile relationships, including with First Dates star CiCi Coleman and singer Katherine Jenkins.
Now, the pair seem more ready than ever to share their romance with the world.
