Gossip Girl star Ed Westwick has found new love just in time for Valentine’s Day after falling for British Bollywood star Amy Jackson.
The 34-year-old TV star and the 30-year-old actress – who was born on the Isle of Man and has starred in a string of films in India – have been secretly dating for the past two months.
The pair met at Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea International Film Festival last December where they were spotted chatting together at a screening during the closing ceremony.
The pair are said to have been taking time to get to know each other and are navigating their romance alongside their busy work schedules.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Ed and Amy are a really good match. They hit it off straight away.
“Both like to have fun and are career-driven. They’re enjoying getting to know each other for now.”
Amy was previously in a relationship with hotelier George Panayiotou and they became engaged in January 2019 and welcomed a son that September.
However, the pair broke off their engagement last summer.
Meanwhile, Ed was previously dating South African model and influencer Tamara Francesconi – but they broke up last August after two years of dating.
Back when they were dating, however, 25-year-old Tamara revealed the surprising way she met Ed, and gave details of their incredibly romantic first date.
She told fans during an Instagram Stories Q&A: "Going to answer this first because it's my most asked question, and probably the reason a lot of you follow me.
"He direct messaged me out of the blue saying hi and I nearly fell off my chair, we then chatted for a while and he asked me on a date, which I assumed would be a dinner.
"Instead he took me to a butterfly sanctuary in Mayfair, we thereafter spent the whole day exploring London together, and the rest is history."
She also went on to confess that she was a huge fan of Gossip Girl and thinks her obsession with the show subconsciously attracted Ed to her.
She said: "Okay here's the tea… I was the biggest Gossip Girl fan known to man, I watched it religiously twice a year and I swear to god I manifested him actually in my life.
"It was actually so funny though because when I first started dating him, my whole group of friends we're super into Gossip Girl and more particularly my friend Annie.
"When I first started dating him I had to sit her down and apologise to her, because she was so insulted.. like how dare I she had dibs on him!"
