"I haven't [seen them together]," John told Capital's Dave Berry and Lisa Snowdon, while being quizzed on pop's hottest new pairing. "I actually spoke to him, and I'm not going to get too involved with it and start putting rumours about.

"But I spoke to him and said, 'How's it going with your new missus?'," John revealed. "And he was like, she's really cool, I get on with her really well. "So as long as it keeps him happy, and he's a good laugh so he needs that. She seems cool," the singer added.
