Is Jake Roche dating this 'The Voice' contestant?
Jake split from Jesy Nelson last year
Following his public split with Little Mix star Jesy Nelson, new reports are suggesting Rixton’s Jake Roche has moved on and is dating a contestant from The Voice UK.
According to new reports Jake has been getting close to Vicki Gordon, who appeared on the popular singing show last year, and even made it into will.i.am’s team with her best friend Scott.
Speaking about the new relationship, a source close to Jake told a national newspaper, “Vicki had a friend in the panto in Southampton and she ended up meeting Jake for drinks after the show. They hit it off straight away and bonded over their recent break-ups."
“Jake was telling her she was a gorgeous girl and giving her loads of confidence... at the end of the night they kissed and exchanged numbers. It’s the first girl Jake has been interested in since the break-up. With Jesy dating again, he wanted to start the New Year by moving on”.
To fuel rumours further, Vicki also recently shared a snap of her friends including Jake during a night out in Southampton.
Jake called off his engagement with Little Mix's Jesy late last year and just last week Jesy finally opened up about the split.
The 25-year-old expressed her heartbreak telling Z100, “When you break up with someone, it's awful. Is it not one of the worst pains?"
She went on to say "It's horrendous, and we all need a sad song that you sit and cry to. At the end of the day, though, you need something that makes you feel empowered ... that makes you think, you know what I don't need you anymore. I'm going to go out with my girls and I'm going to get over you because I don't need you. And that's exactly what Shout Out To My Ex does."

Recent rumours have suggested Jesy has also moved on with Bradley Churchil. Bradley is best friends with Perrie Edwards’ new beau Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and the pair were recently spotted on a double date together in Paris.
It seems they’ve both moved on!
