Have Jesy Nelson and TOWIE's Chris Clark just confirmed their romance?

Rumours have been circulating for weeks that Little Mix star Jesy Nelson is dating The Only Way Is Essex's Chris Clark and now fans think the pair have finally confirmed things on Instagram.

Eagle eyed Little Mix fans noticed Chris not only liked a recent picture of Jesy but also commented on the snap with a flurry of love emojis!

The snap showed Jesy looking stunning as ever at the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards at the weekend, with Chris expressing his love for his rumoured girlfriend when he wrote 'My girl'.

This isn't the only photo Chris has liked. A few days ago Chris wrote 'I'm one lucky fella' on Jesy's promotional shot for Little Mix's new single 'No More Sad Songs'.

Making sure Chris didn't feel left out, Jesy returned the compliments for the TOWIE star when she commented '👌' alongside a smiling face with heart eyes on a recent snap.

Of course fans love the idea at a Jesy and Chris romance and expressed their love for the pair on Twitter.

Rumours first started to speculate that the pair were dating last month when Jesy dodged a question about her love life during an interview with the rest of the Little Mix girls.

Fans were then given more evidence the pair were dating when Chris shared a cosy snap of himself with Jesy with the caption 'I don't want this girl to go back America tomorrow!'.

Meanwhile whilst Chris is in Essex filming scenes for TOWIE, Jesy is out in America touring with Ariana Grande.

The girls took a break from their mammoth tour schedule at the weekend when they attended the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards and picked up the award for 'Favourite Global Music Star'.

They later took to Instagram to thank their fans in a cute message.

The group also performed a medley of their hit tracks 'Touch' and 'Shout Out To My Ex' at the awards and changed some of the lyrics to make the songs more appropriate for the age of the audience.
