Chiles, Bleakley fuel romance rumours again

Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley have set tongues wagging yet again after being spotted spending more time together outside of work hours.

According to The Mail On Sunday, Chiles arrived at Bleakley's flat in West London at 7.45am on Thursday and drove her to Gatwick Airport, where she jetted off for a holiday in Spain.

The TV presenters have been frequently linked in the media since Bleakley joined The One Show as Chiles's co-host in 2007, though talk of a romance has been repeatedly denied by the pair.

The rumours were fuelled in February this year when Bleakley's ex-fiancé reportedly blamed Chiles after they split following a three-year romance.

Responding to the latest speculation, Bleakley's agent insisted: "Christine has got a long weekend off and has gone on holiday with friends. She has not gone away with Adrian, they are just mates and spend a lot of time together.

"Her fiancé broke off the engagement, not her. The fact that Christine spends so much time with Adrian could have been a contributing factor. They work from midday to 8pm on The One Show and all the production team spend a lot of time socialising together."

Chiles also supported Bleakley throughout her stint on Strictly Come Dancing last year. She lasted ten weeks in the competition before being eliminated with her professional dance partner Matthew Cutler.
