Lewis Capaldi jokes of 'romantic tension' between Uber driver as he fails to recognise singer

Lewis Capaldi may have gone official with his new girlfriend last weekend during the BRITs - after kissing Harry Styles that is - but it seems there is more romance in the air between him and his Uber driver.

The singer and songwriter took to Instagram ahead of his next gig in Germany and whilst being driven to his next location, joked of a "romantic tension" between himself and a Berlin Uber driver.

The Glasgow-born singer is currently touring Europe and is set to take centre stage at the Mercedes-Benz Arena tonight (February 16) for yet another successful gig.

Sharing a video of himself in the back of a taxi while his tune 'Pointless' is blasting out of the radio, as reported by the Daily Record, Lewis captioned the video: "In Berlin and Pointless has just come on the radio in my Uber" alongside an emoji of the Berlin flag.

However rather than coming to the realisation that he had the singer in the back of his car, the 26-year-old and his cabbie are instead sitting in silence.

He later joked to his 5.6million followers and fans that the "romantic tension between me and the driver [is] through the roof".

It comes after the BRIT Awards, which took place over the weekend, with Lewis appearing to go public with his new romance.

After locking lips with Harry Styles, who is set to perform in Scotland in just a few months time, he was also caught kissing Scots actress and model Ellie MacDowall after months of speculation that the pair were dating.
