Calum Best Discusses New Romance

Calum Best has opened up about his new romance with Ianthe Rose Cochrane-Stack.

The 34-year-old appeared on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this month, but kept the romance firmly under wraps, only confirming he was seeing someone after he left the house. And speaking to Hello! magazine, Best has admitted he is smitten with the model, even going as far as to introduce the 23-year-old to his mother.

He said: "I've been a pretty closed book in relationships. I've kept a lot private, not wanting to let people get too close, but they got on so great.

"My mum can see how crazy I am about Ianthe, and she's thrilled that she's come into my life at a really good time because everything is positive and I'm in a really good place.

"I have honestly never felt this strongly about anyone before or wanted to evolve a relationship as much as I do this one. And that feels really great."

The model is known for appearing in a music video for Olly Murs' single 'Wrapped Up'. He added that soon afterwards, he knew the romance with Ianthe was different.

"Ianthe was on my mind every single day," he confessed. "I would picture me scooping her up in my arms and her sat on the sofa at my flat, smiling that beautiful smile of hers.

"What is it they say? Distance makes the heart grow fonder? And it's true, because I have never been so desperate to see someone as I was by the end of that four weeks [in the CBB house]."

However, it's not just the television personality who is smitten; when asked about her partner's famous playboy reputation, Ianthe said: "The way I look at it everyone, Calum included, is entitled to a past, and whilst I will judge him, I will do it from what I know of him, not on a reputation.

"And what I know of him so far is that he is the sweetest, kindest, most considerate man I have ever been involved with. He is, as people are now realising, a real gentleman and I find that really refreshing."
