Former rugby player James Haskell and Celebs Go Dating‘s Tom Read Wilson got cosy in some cute photos.
Posting to Instagram, Haskell shared three images of himself with his arm around Wilson. He captioned the post: “The look of love,” tagging Wilson with a red heart.
Wilson shared the post on his Instagram story, captioned “unexpected” and featuring a kissing face emoji.
Both of the men competed on I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!. Haskell appeared on the show in 2019 while Wilson was on last year’s series.
Some fans in the comments are theorising whether they are the “perfect couple”. Meanwhile, others have pointed out that it seems the pair are on set for the next series of Celebs Go Dating.
The show features celebrities looking for love be guided by dating agents who provide them with relationship support. On the reality dating show, Wilson serves as a client coordinator.
‘The look of love’
Wilson, who is gay, has been open about being currently single. While in the jungle, he shared he was “ambivalent about marriage. But then I was so thrilled about that bill to equal marriage and I remember thinking, ‘This is such a beacon of parity,’ and it made me want to do it.”
Haskell is appearing on the show following his split from his wife, Chloe Madeley. The pair were married for five years and have a daughter together.
Speaking about his appearance on the show, Haskell shared: “I’m buzzing to be joining the agency.
“I’m at a stage in my life where I have a clear sense of who I am and what I want, which feels great.
“I’m looking forward to meeting amazing people, having some fun, and hopefully creating something meaningful through the experience.”
Previously, the 40-year-old ex-rugby star has been vocal in his support of LGBTQ+ players.
In 2019, speaking to Rugby Pass, he shared that players shouldn’t have to come out, in the same we he didn’t come out as straight.
“My view on sexuality is it’s a shame that it’s something people still have to announce or deal with, but obviously we do, and it’s like that because a lot of people aren’t informed as they should be.
“I can’t imagine what it’s like to be struggling to actually be yourself, to live a life where you’re not able to be yourself and to come to a team like the Outlaws where you’re not judged, you’re accepted, it’s essential.”
