EXCLUSIVE: James Haskell, the 41-year-old rugby star, has made a jaw-dropping confession about his Celebs Go Dating co-star, Coleen Nolan, 61.
In a recent appearance on This Morning, James admitted to having a major crush on Coleen, revealing heâd be âgiving her a spinâ if the rules didnât stop them from dating.
The two are currently starring together on the hit E4 reality series, where they date a mix of singletons in search of true love. But it seems thereâs a special spark between these two celebs.
While discussing his co-stars, James couldnât help but gush: âWeâve bonded really well, and theyâre so nice, I love them. Especially Coleen, Iâve got a real crush on her.â
Things got even more awkward (or exciting?) when James joked that, had he the chance, heâd âprobablyâ ask Coleen out, and the entire studio audience was left in disbelief!
But the biggest twist? At the end of the segment, James got the surprise of his life when Coleen appeared in the studio! She rushed over for a very flirty embrace as James cheekily asked, âDo you wanna sit on my knee?â Coleen laughed and shot back, âNot again!â

However, the flirtation didnât stop there. The pair continued to tease each other with playful banter, with James even cracking a joke about needing to lock the door to keep Coleen from âclimbing through the window.â Talk about a celebrity love connection!
But wait, it gets better. Despite the obvious chemistry, James has had his fair share of struggles in the dating department. During a mixer event with other singles, James was slammed by the dating experts for having âno game.â Ouch!Â

Dr. Tara didnât hold back, commenting, âDudeâs got no game,â while Anna Williamson said, âHeâs a good guy, but we need him to step up his performance!â
