The Love Island presenter is dating tennis pro Lewis Burton
Caroline Flack has opened up about her decision not to have kids yet and worries she’s left things “too late”.
The telly personality – who’s enjoyed stratospheric success presenting Love Island and was rumoured to have had her salary tripled with the introduction of a second series – opened up about dating at 39, having recently gone official with tennis pro, Lewis Burton.
“I’ve still kind of always put work first — wake up in the morning, go to work, come home — just like my boyfriend has,” she said.
“I’m scared it’s going to get too late where I’ve wanted to go, ‘Right, maybe slow down, think about having kids and maybe think about settling down,’ but I’ve never had that.”

Prince Harry
Er, what??Caz and His Royal Highness Prince Harry were first linked in 2009 when they were introduced by a mutual friend. Writing in her autobiography, Storm in a C Cup, she wrote, "To meet a prince is so unlikely, it would be weird not to acknowledge it. However, once the story got out, that was it. We had to stop seeing each other. I was no longer Caroline Flack, TV presenter, I was Caroline Flack, Prince Harry's bit of rough."
Olly Murs
Rumours started swirling about Caroline and her Xtra Factor co-host Olly Murs as soon as they started working together, with viewers quickly picking up on their undeniable chemistry. Speaking to heat magazine a few years later, she admitted that it was "a little bit flirty" in the beginning."I used to watch you on I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here Now!, and thought you seemed like a top person," added Oli. ""Someone really lovely, who I could go out for a drink and have a laugh with.It's almost like when you think of girlfriends – you're the perfect girlfriend."
Harry Styles
Who could forget this shock romance?Harry and Caz first hooked up a year after he came second on X Factor with band One Direction, but because of the age gap, they wanted to keep their relationship a secret.Caroline wrote, "I already knew that he had a crush on me, he's made it pretty obvious as he's said it in magazines and said it to friends. I've never felt I was much older than Harry. I still feel 18 and I probably act that way half the time. Although it was just a bit of fun we decided it was best to keep it to ourselves as we were both working for Simon Cowell."It began to go wrong when he was pictured coming out of my house one morning," she continued. "And that was that. In the street people started shouting 'paedophile' at me in the street and 'pervert'."
James Arthur
Back of the queue, James – just like basically every other X Factor contestant ever, James admitted he had a HUGE crush on Flacky when he was competing on the show in 2012. "I think Caroline Flack is beautiful. Maybe we'll see in the future. Things like this have to develop," he said at the time.unfortunately Caz wasn't on board and her rep confirmed her and James were "definitely not a thing". Oops.
Jack Street
Caroline moved in with Sam Smith's music manager Jack Street after a respectable eight months of dating in 2014.Sadly their relationship was dogged with cheating rumours,and things turned pretty nasty pretty publicly over social media when Jack tweeted encouraging his followers to vote for Caroline on Strictly Come Dancing, and she retaliated, "@jackb_street easing your guilt??? Fill yourself with GLEE Jack" – a reference to reports he had been pursuing Glee actress Dianna Agron during their relationship.
Niall Horan
Four years after her controversial romance with Harry Styles, Caroline set tongues wagging when she was spotted flirting up a storm with fellow On Directioner Niall Horan.Apparently she was overheard saying "I'm old enough to be your mother!" and was "hugging him tightly and kissing him on the cheek".
Andrew Brady
It was a whirlwind romance even by celebrity standards. After meeting Apprentice/Celebrity Big Brother star in January 2018, the couple were engaged just three months later but called off their relationship in July.They were on and off for a while after that, but ultimately it wasn't to last.
AJ Pritchard
Caroline was spotted getting very close to Strictly professional dancer AJ Pritchard at the National Television Awards in 2019. She was photographed by a fan cosying up to AJ, 24, at the bar, giggling over Champagne before finding a quiet corner sofa to get better acquainted with the dancer.
Danny Cipriani
In April 2018, the Flackster was linked to Rugby bad boy Danny Cipriani, who counts Katie Price and Kelly Brooke as exes.The couple were spotted on a romantic mini break at Somerset hotspot Babington House, where a source said, "Danny couldn't keep his hands off her."He's obviously very into her, and to be fair they make a great- looking couple. They did start tongues wagging quite quickly."Of course he does have a reputation as a lothario, but Caroline is clearly a confident woman who seems to be able to handle herself."
Bradley Simmonds
There was some extra Love dramz on this year's Love Island as Caz was linked to Molly-Mae's ex, PT Bradley Simmonds. But she insisted she didn't want to complicate their friendship with romance, telling Cosmopolitan, "I wouldn't want to ruin it because he's the best thing. He's the only constant in my life right now."

Caroline’s relationship history has been well documented in the tabloid press, most famously her romances with Prince Harry and One Direction singer Harry Styles, who she dated when she was 31 and he was 17.
She was even engaged to reality star Andrew Brady, but their relationship broke down last year.
Speaking in an upcoming appearance on comedian Kathy Burke’s new talk show, All Woman, Caroline said, “Being single shouldn’t be seen as a sign of a weakness. When you’re on your own, you’re more powerful because you’re not relying on someone else.
"So it’s actually more of a powerful thing to be single. And when you’re single and happy, that is when you feel at your best."
