HRVY has suggested that he is open to romance with Strictly Come Dancing co-star Maisie Smith after she left a series of flirty comments on pictures of him in his underwear.
Earlier this week, the 21-year-old posted several snaps of him posing in Calvin Kleins for his 2021 calendar, prompting EastEnders star Smith, 19, to compare him to a young Justin Bieber.
Asked about their flirtatious exchanges, HRVY told The Mirror: "I love Maisie, she's a great girl and has got great banter. When I saw her in her blue dress last week, she looked incredible. I can't wait to see her grow and look amazing every week.
"I've spoken to Maisie at the studios, but the thing is legally I'm not even allowed to go near her.
"So for now we are great friends, and she's lovely. I am going to focus on the dancing, and all that stuff can come second, but who knows what will happen after the show!"
The youngsters are among the favourites to win this year's series, which airs its first live performance show tonight on BBC One.
