Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones were reportedly spotted looking very cosy while on a date.
The Morning Live co-hosts sparked romance rumours after getting close at the TV Baftas last month and exchanging “flirty” comments on social media.
The BBC presenters were “all over each other” while visiting a country club and spa near Jones’ home in Manchester on Monday, sources claimed.
Skelton, 41, and Jones, 47, surprised onlookers at the luxury venue with their flirty behaviour, according to The Sun.
“Gethin and Helen were all over each other. They are clearly super comfortable with each other and it wasn’t just like two friends hanging out,” an insider said.
“Helen was really laughing and smiling as they spent time together before heading off in the late afternoon.”
The Standard has contacted representatives for Skelton and Jones for comment.
Jones relocated to Altrincham in south Manchester in 2022, while Skelton is based in Cumbria with her children Ernie, nine, Louis, eight, and Elsie, three, who she shares with her ex-husband Richie Myler.
Last month, sources claimed the duo’s solid working relationship has, in recent months, evolved into something more.
"Helen and Gethin have an extremely close working relationship and there's a feeling in recent months their friendship has blossomed into a deeper connection,” a source told MailOnline.
“They're both keen to keep a lid on it to avoid public scrutiny but there's no denying their closeness both on and off screen.”
Both Skelton and Jones are currently believed to be single.
Jones has been open about dating again since the end of his engagement to Katherine Jenkins in 2011, while Skelton separated from her ex-husband Richie Myler in 2022.
The pair have been sharing “flirty” comments back and forth on Instagram in recent months.
Jones shared a tribute to “superhuman” Skelton in March after they took part in a 24-hour live TV challenge for Comic Relief.
Alongside photos of the pair during the challenge, he wrote: “And a little appreciation post for this superwoman @helenskelton. Unbelievable physical and mental resilience... Loves a laugh but a deep thinker (I had to remind her a few times we were live on TV).
“It says a lot that you can spend 24 hours non-stop with someone and still call them an hour later for a debrief.
“Respect means we can be honest with each other always. There was NO time at all, at any time during this challenge, not one, where I wanted to throw her off the rink. Never once. Didn’t even come into mind.”
Skelton repaid the favour, gushing: “My dear @gethincjones... You are some man.
“I don't publicly say often enough how much love and respect I have for you my friend because I assume it is well known, but for the record you're a legend and I am beyond grateful to have you by my side on the rink, the sofa and beyond.”
