Hi-5 star Lauren Brant confirms she is dating her I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here co-star.

Turns out being stuck in the South African jungle together has led to romance for I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here stars Lauren Brant and Barry Hall.

The former children’s entertainer and AFL star have confirmed that love has blossomed after they were photographed kissing over the weekend.

"We have been spending a lot of time together and we have been enjoying each other's company," Lauren told The Daily Telegraph of the new relationship.

"Who knows what the future holds?"

Rumours of a romantic link between the pair have been swirling since they appeared on the reality TV show's first Australian season together in 2015.

Later the same year, Lauren was embroiled in controversy when her ex-fiancé accused her of having an affair with NRL star Beau Ryan.

In August, she posted on Instagram that had learned "so much" about herself during her 'difficult year'.

Here's an interesting fact you may not know about me... I won a premiership. For the Swans actually. Back in 2005. #youcanchoosetobelieve

"I used to spend most of my time trying to get others’ approval on stage and television,” she wrote.

"In the last year I have learnt so much about living for MY own happiness and with that has come strength and self love."
