A spark formed, the source claims, and the pair have reportedly been seeing one another since Lauren’s split from TV ‘husband’ Matthew Bennett, 29.
‘Lauren has definitely told those closest to her about him and is smitten’ the source alleges, but the pair are hiding their romance not to ‘anger producers’ on the show.
Mick is paired with Jessika Power on the show but the magazine’s source claims the part-time model ‘never liked Mick’ and turned a blind eye to his bond with Lauren.
