BBC news presenter Simon McCoy is dating a Dynasty star

BBC News presenter Simon McCoy is in a relationship with Dynasty actress Emma Samms.

The TV anchor, 58, has been dating the actress since his split from wife, BBC South West presenter Victoria Graham, last year, the Mirror reports .

"We are very happy together", McCoy told the Daily Mail.

It is believed the pair could even marry once his divorce is finalised.

They have already set up home together at Emma's property in the Cotswolds.

She played Fallon Carrington Colby in the hit 1980s soap opera Dynasty and has been married in real life three times.

Her partner, McCoy had been married for 12 years until their split last year.

They reportedly met at a polo match in Windsor, Berkshire, and had no children. He had a son, Max, from a previous marriage.

McCoy is well known for his pithy remarks.
