Sandford admitted that she was worried that admirers of the boyband bassist would send her abuse because of their romance.
"I was worried they'd give me stick for it because we've got a MySpace for the band," she told Metro.
"[But] for every nasty message I get from McFly fans I get eight nice ones. I went to one of their shows and a lot of people came up to me. I was really nervous about it but everyone was nice."
Speaking about their relationship, she added: "We don't go out posing for the paps at clubs so I guess we're not rubbing it in people’s faces. I'm sure that would annoy people."
