Ashleigh Defty is reportedly dating Leicester City footballer Danny Simpson.
The ‘Ex On The Beach’ beauty, who previously dated Scotty T for two years before he entered the ‘Geordie Shore’ house, is now said to be loved up with the hunk, who plays right-back for the club, but the pair have been keeping their romance under wraps while he focuses on his career.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "It’s early days but there’s no denying they’re into each other. Ashleigh has even started referring to him as her boyfriend."
Danny’s football team is due to go head-to-head with Manchester United on Sunday (02.05.16) – a crucial game for Leicester City, which are three points away from the top of the premiership table. If they win this weekend’s match they will be crowned champions of the Premier League.
The insider added: "Ashleigh and Danny have been keeping their romance under wraps as they don’t want anyone to think he’s being distracted with the most crucial games of his life ahead."
Meanwhile, Danny, 29, has had his fair share on romances in the past as he famously dated Tulisa Contostavlos back in 2013 before they split six months later after a row over a pair of shoes.
The following year he struck up a relationship with former ‘Geordie Shore’ star Vicky Pattison.
