Published 8th Sep 2016

Rumours have been rife over the last week that reality favourite's Joey Essex and Stephanie Pratt are dating and now the pair have fans speculating even further.

Appearing on an episode of This Morning, both Joey and Stephanie flirted their way through the interview as Joey confessed the pair have been on a date and he’s even bought the MIC star a puppy!

As Philip Schofield explained to the viewers that he had seen them getting ‘extremely close’ earlier in the week at the TV Choice Awards, Stephanie joked “I don’t know what you are talking about."

The former TOWIE man then waded in saying “We do go on a date. And I bought her a puppy.”

Continuing to dig for answers on their relationship status, both Holly and Phillip asked questions which made the pair squirm. When asked the question if they’d be arriving at work together, Steph joked “We could pull up in the same car together, we really want to save the environment.”

It seems This Morning viewers also noticed the chemisty between the pair...

The pair appeared on the show to talk about their involvement in E4’s new dating show Celebs Go Dating. Joey and Steph are joined on the show by Tattoo Fixer’s Paisley, Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby, and Outnumbered’s Tyger Drew Honey in an attempt to find them love.

Joey and Stephanie are no stranger to the dating game, both having had high profile relationships in the past. Joey was engaged to fellow TOWIE co-star Sam Faiers before the pair split in 2014.

The former The Hills star has also enjoyed relationships with MIC ladies’ man Spencer Matthews and Josh Hansen.
