Neighbours actress confirms secret dates with Niall Horan
Ooo!
Last updated 5th Oct 2017
Unlike his One Direction band mates, Niall Horan has kept his dating life pretty much on the down low since he found fame on The X Factor back in 2010, but it seems Niall has been enjoying time with a girl out in Australia.
Neighbours actress Olympia Valance, who is the sister of Australian actress Holly Valance, has opened up for the first time about her secret dates with the One Direction heartthrob and revealed they often swap messages.
Speaking to a national newspaper, Olympia said, “We’ve known each other for a couple of years now. He obviously spends a lot of time in Australia with his cousins.
“We just met in Australia and we’ve been messaging ever since and yeah we have hung out together a bit. We are quite close. I see him when I come to London and he sees me when he’s in Oz.”
Last month to celebrate Niall's birthday, the actress posted a photo of the pair with the caption 'Happy birhday darlin' to her Instagram story.
Despite many fans of Niall hoping for a romance between the pair, Olympia, who plays Paige Smith in the Australian soap, also revealed she is 100% single at the moment.
She added, "I am single at the moment. I've been single pretty much all this year and it's been really nice. I've always had problems being on my own before and now I'm actually like, I really love this and just not having anyone to answer to."
Meawhile Niall is an incredibly busy boy at the moment! Not only is he currently touring with his 'Flicker Sessions' across America, last month he released his third solo single 'Too Much To Ask' and confirmed the release date for his debut solo album.
Sharing a photo of the album cover to his Instagram page, Niall wrote, 'It's been a long time coming but I'm delighted to announce that my new album 'Flicker' is out on the 20th of October . I hope you enjoy it'. sic
Fans were ecstatic at the news, one user wrote, 'Can't wait❤', with another adding, 'This album will be very much like you. I'm excited!!! 🙌'.
The new album arrives on the same day as Niall's former One Direction band mate Liam Payne drops his new single 'Bedroom Floor'.
Since One Direction started their hiatus in January 2016, Niall enjoyed taking time out before releasing his debut solo single 'This Town' in September 2016. Niall then dropped his catchy tune 'Slow Hands' earlier this year, before 'Too Much To Ask' landed last month.
