CBeebies icon Mr Tumble, aka Justin Fletcher, has fallen in love with his co-star Samantha Dorrance, who plays his best friend Tootsie.
Justin, 55, and Samanth, 34, reportedly fell for each other while working on a panto and travelling on their live tour.
In fact, the pair are so smitten that Samantha has moved into his £2.5million farmhouse.
According to The Sun, the couple enjoy nothing more than a quiet life and looking after their chickens.
‘Justin and Samantha are madly in love and couldn’t be happier,’ a source told the paper.
‘They are both dedicated performers and bonded over their love of musical theatre.
‘Although there is an age gap, it isn’t an issue between them.’
According to the insider, both Samantha and Justin’s friends are thrilled for them and are happy they’ve found each other.
‘For Justin, Samantha is “The One”. Justin was single for a while before he reconnected with Samantha, and it went from there,’ the insider continued.
‘The farm is their sanctuary and where they both feel happiest. Friends know about the relationship, as well as their castmates on the tour.
‘It’s wonderful to see Justin so happy. Samantha is the best thing that has ever happened to him.’
Justin has made no secret of his struggles to find love, previously joking he has to bat off proposals from mums who watch his show.
However, how ‘workaholic’ tendencies mean he’s neglected his love life.
‘I’m not married, live alone and have been single for a while now because I’ve been a workaholic filming Something Special, Justin’s House and Gigglebiz,’ he said back in 2012.
‘But I do want to free up some time for myself and my family. I’d love to have children, so I need to find someone who likes kids. A couple of kids would be lovely.’
Samantha first hinted at their relationship in March when she shared a picture of herself on Instagram, mentioning she and an unnamed ‘partner’ had been rearing chickens.
‘Last year, me and my partner hatched our own chickens,’ she wrote.
‘I was making breakfast one morning and noticed that all the eggs we had been buying from our local honesty box were fertilised.
‘My partner just so happened to have an old incubator, so we dug it out.’
Metro has gone to Justin Fletcher and Samantha Dorrance for comment.
