ITV The Chase's Bradley Walsh quizzes Maisie Smith and Max George on 'big day' after realising they're dating

ITV The Chase was back with a celebrity special on Sunday, April 23. Bradley Walsh was joined by Christine Ohuruogu, Max George, Maisie Smith, and Owain Wyn-Evans in the studio.

The Wanted's Max, 34, and former EastEnders actor Maisie, 21, made history on the show becoming the first celebrity couple to appear on the show. However, host Bradley was completely unaware they were a couple, making for a pretty awkward exchange.

Welcoming Max onto the show, Bradley asked him about his career. Discussing his singing, acting, and football, the star also mentioned his time on Strictly Come Dancing.

Bradley, 62, then turned and asked the contestants: "Who else has done Strictly?"

"I knocked him out," Maisie said. "So you've known each other before this then before you got on here today?" Bradley quizzed.

The pair began to giggle as Max responded: "Yeah we know each other a little bit," looking confused Bradley asked again: "How do you know each other?"

As the Penny dropped, Bradley asked: "Have you been out together?" Teasing Brad, Max said: "Currently, it's sort of going at the minute."

"Oh I didn't know I'm so sorry," Brad awkwardly replied, before adding: "Erm, so when's the big day?"

"Funny you mention it," said Max as he pretended to reach into his pocket to pull out a ring, leaving Maisie gobsmacked. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
