Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley has revealed that he does not get jealous over girlfriend and co-star Blake Lively's on screen romances.

The actor, who plays Dan Humphrey in the CW drama, has been dating Lively (Serena van der Woodsen) for almost two years.

Speaking to Us Weekly about whether either of them feel jealous, he said: "I don't overthink it. I shut that part of my brain off and go through the motions.

"It's the same with Blake. We have an unbelievable trust and such a healthy relationship."

The 22-year-old added that he still finds it "uncomfortable" watching himself on screen, explaining: "Seeing your face up there, I find myself grimacing and flinching the whole time. And I sweat, too. It's just like, 'Oh, God!'"

Badgely can next be seen in thriller The Stepfather.
