Gareth Gates has reportedly shared an "instant attraction" with Emma Bunton's cousin Hayley Louise Hughes.
The pair were spotted cuddling at the Spice Girls' London after-show party on December 19. Two weeks later Gates proposed to girlfriend Suzanne Mole.
Photos of Gates touching Hughes's bum and allegedly leaning in for kiss are on her Facebook page, reports The Sun.
A friend of Hughes commented: "Hayley was chatting to Baby Spice then Gareth came over to join in the conversation. There was an instant attraction. Hayley does look a lot like Suzanne.
"They were getting really cosy all night then got a taxi back to a hotel. Hayley has boasted to her pals about what happened that night and Gareth scored a six from the judging panel.
"He never once mentioned his girlfriend. Hayley’s a lovely-looking girl and loves the showbiz circuit.
"She has had a few text messages from Gareth since his engagement. She backed off when she realised he had a girlfriend."
