Helen Skelton's romance with Gethin Jones gets steamy as he treats her to a country club spa date
Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones enjoyed a romantic date at a country house spa this week, as romance speculation continues to grow.
BBC Morning Live co-stars Gethin, 47, and Helen, 41, have found themselves at the centre of romance rumours as news of their reported relationship circulated last month.
And on Monday the pair were spotted getting cosy at a spa, after Gethin treated Helen to a date at his local country club.
An insider has revealed of the flirty date: 'Gethin and Helen were all over each other. They are clearly super comfortable with each other and it wasn't just like two friends hanging out.'
'Helen was really laughing and smiling as they spent time together before heading off in the late afternoon,' they added to The Sun.
Gethin and Helen both appear on BBC show on week day mornings, with the date said to have taken place after they left the Manchester studio together.
Gethin lives in Altrincham in south Manchester after relocating from London back in 2022.
Helen meanwhile is based in Cumbria with her children Ernie, nine, Louis, eight, and Elsie, three, who she shares with her ex-husband Richie Myler.
The TV stars were pictured leaving the Bafta TV Awards together this month but they first fuelled romance rumours in March with their joint 24-hour roller-skating challenge for Comic Relief.
During the challenge, Gethin publicly praised Helen's resilience and sense of humour.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, he shared his admiration for her, revealing he called her within an hour of the event ending to debrief.
Gushing over how much he enjoyed spending time with Helen, Gethin also let slip a secret nickname he has for her, as he captioned a snap of the star sporting a red nose with 'famous ferret'.
Fans quickly picked up on their connection, with one writing: 'You two belong together. Love you guys. Epic challenge, a pleasure to watch.'
Another commented: 'Cooooome on!!! It's staring you both in the face!!'
The pair have since been seen at several high-profile events, including a charity ball, where their relaxed and cosy demeanour again caught attention.
While neither Gethin nor Helen has confirmed the rumours, their growing closeness continues to keep fans guessing.
Helen announced her separation from her husband Richie Myler, 35, in 2022 just four months after the birth of their third child.
The split reportedly came as a shock, leaving Helen blindsided.
Sharing the news on Instagram at the time, she wrote: 'Very sad to say that Richie and I are no longer a couple. He has left the family home. We will be doing our best to co-parent our small children.'
Following the separation, Helen relocated with her three children to her hometown in Cumbria, focusing on her family and career.
She later appeared on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, which she credited the show with helping her navigate the emotional aftermath of her marriage breakdown.
Following Helen and Richie's abrupt separation, the rugby player started a new relationship and welcomed two more children.
Gethin, meanwhile, has been single for two years having briefly dated First Dates star Cici Coleman in 2023.
Previously, he had romances with TOWIE's Lucy Mecklenburgh in 2014 and German underwear model Katja Zwara in 2017.
But his most serious relationship was with Welsh opera star Katherine Jenkins who he dated for four years from 2007.

M&S shoppers race to buy £35 ‘slimming' butter yellow summer dress that ‘hides lumps and bumps' and ‘doesn't crease'
MARKS & SPENCER is finally back in action, and fashion fans have been rushing to pick up the retailer's new £35 summer dress. The textured midi dress (which comes in the colour of the season) has been praised by shoppers for its flattering fit that "hides lumps and bumps". M&S Textured V-Neck Midi Column Dress, £35 Featuring a fitted silhouette with breathable textured material and airy short sleeves, the butter yellow number is perfect for summer. The M&S V-Neck Column Dress is finished with a knot design at the front, giving a stylish twist on a staple piece. It comes in butter yellow and black colourways, with regular, petite and tall sizes available — although several sizes have already sold out. The wearable style could be dressed up or down for most occasions, and it would look great teamed with sandals and sunglasses for a comfortable holiday outfit. As the textured design gives a dressy feel, it would also pair well with heels and chunky gold jewellery for a summer evening look. The high-street dress has received rave reviews from Marks & Spencer shoppers, with a 4.6-out-of-5 star rating. One customer wrote: "Excellent dress that skims the body to create a slimming effect. The textured material is good quality and it washes well, no ironing required as it always looks as good as new. It's true to size as well, more colours and styles please." Another added: "I purchased the yellow colour in store, and liked it that much that I ordered the black when it came back in stock as it's so flattering. M&S Textured V-Neck Midi Column Dress, £35 It's so curve enhancing and it's not too short, plus no lumps and bumps are shown. The material is thin but soft, and it isn't see through. It's so great for summer." Marks & Spencer gave an update earlier on its cyber attack this week, confirming that the retailer is accepting orders again for the first time since the attack in April. Shoppers are now able to order online again, but the retailer has warned that deliveries may take up to 10 days. If you don't know where to begin with your online order, Fashion Editor Abby McHale has handpicked the M&S pieces worth adding to your basket before they sell out. M&S' £35 midi dress isn't the only butter yellow piece causing a stir, as Sainsbury's shoppers have been racing to pick up a similar version from the supermarket. The £28 summer dress has been praised for hiding mum tum, with its relaxed cut and flattering puffed sleeves. It also has a stylish gingham print that's perfect for summer.
