The unlikely couple: Catherine Tate 'enjoying secret romance with Take That singer Jason Orange'

By Sarah Bull


They are surely one of the most unlikely couples in showbiz history.

But comedian Catherine Tate and singer Jason Orange have been enjoying a secret romance over the past few months, it has been claimed.

The pair, who first met when they took part in a Comic Relief sketch back in March, are said to have been on a string of dates in recent weeks, including an overnight trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon.

New couple: Catherine Tate and Jason Orange have apparently been enjoying a secret romance

A source told The Sun: 'They were trying to keep things secret but looked very loved up and happy together.

'It's a very unlikely pairing but they have really hit it off. They've been on a number of dates to the theatre and the cinema.

'They really enjoy each other's company. Catherine deserves someone nice and she has landed on her feet with Jason.

'But they have both been desperate to keep their romance secret.'

Catherine, 43, and Jason, 41, first struck up a friendship when the redheaded comedienne took on the role of Jason in spoof band Fake That for the sketch.

She starred alongside James Corden, Alan Carr, Kevin Bishop and David Walliams as the fake Take That.

After getting on well while filming the footage, the pair stayed in touch and their romance is thought to have blossomed this summer, following Catherine's split from stage manager partner Twig Clark.

As well as going to see A Midsummer Night's Dream in Stratford, Catherine and Jason have apparently been spotted on dates to the cinema, the National Theatre and at a coffee shop near Jason's flat in West London.

Catherine shot to fame playing Lauren Cooper, famous for her catchphrase 'Am I Bovvered?' in her TV sketch show, before landing a role in Doctor Who.

She has also forged a career for herself in the theatre world, having recently starred alongside David Tennant in Much Ado About Nothing.

While Catherine's most recent relationship was with Clark, who was stage manager for her play at the National Theatre, Jason has remained quiet about his personal life during his time in the spotlight.

He has, however, been romantically linked to stars including singer Lulu and TV presenter Jenny Powell.
