For some reason unknown to us mere mortals, those Celebs Go Dating stars simply can't keep their privileged paws off one another. Year after year, the celeb daters have been far more likely to hook up with their fellow agency sign-ups over whoever Anna Williamson and Paul C Brunson have set them up with.

In fact, sometimes the agency's clients end up having actual CHILDREN with each other (well, not yet, but soon) – looking at you Gary Lucy and Laura Anderson. At the very least, you best be make the agents godparents...

This year's series hasn't even started airing yet and already rumours are swirling that sparks are flying amongst several of the latest celebrities – surprise surprise, mainly due to the deadly presence of Love Island bad boy Adam Collard in the Celebs Go Dating offices. At first we thought there might be something going on with him and Chloe Burrows, but now – thanks to photographic evidence – we think something might be going on with model Lottie Moss.

We won't find out for sure until the series starts on Sunday 20 August at 9pm on E4, but let's face it, this is Adam Collard on yet another dating show; he's officially lost his 'benefit of the doubt' privilege at this point.

After Adam Collard and Chloe Burrows shut down rumours that they were secretly eyeing each other on the set of the new series, new rumours began flying that Adam and fellow Celebs Go Dating client Lottie Moss were setting off flame emojis on and off set. These rumours gained some traction when The Sun shared pictures of Adam and Lottie holding hands. A source told the publication, "It’s been a dynamic and explosive mix of celebs and there was an instant attraction between Lottie and Adam. They have really hit it off behind the scenes."

The CGD insider continued, "They have been on dates and have been seeing where it goes. It has been a lot of fun but who knows if it will last beyond the filming of the series…

"Every single series celebs are attracted to other celebs and this time it is no different."

Laura Anderson and Gary Lucy in series 12

Actor Gary Lucyand reality star Laura Anderson were another couple to shun dating non-famouses. In a previous series of the show Gary and Laura were still dating the normal folks the dating gurus were setting them up with, but as it turns out they were getting to know each other while the cameras weren't rolling. They went on to officially date after the series and they are now expecting a child together. The couple chose to split in early 2023, but are both gearing up for their little bundle's arrival and are both set to co-parent "amicably".

Stephanie Pratt and Joey Essex in series 1

When the show was just a little bitty baby in 2016, Stephanie Pratt and Joey Essex were its first ever celeb couple. Nadia Essex, then one of the show's dating experts, certainly made her feelings known as later Steph told us, "I try to block out bad memories, but she didn't accept that Joey and I were dating. She was evil to me when I was dating Joey, on and off camera. She was flirting with Joey."

Eden Blackman and Chanel Sadie Paul in series 2

So this was QUITE the scandal at the time. Then dating coach Eden Blackman ended up hooking up with one of the civilian daters, Chanel, a Kim Kardashian lookalike who was brought in to date IRL Kim's best mate Jonathan Cheban (awks). It all crumbled though when Chanel found out he'd been two timing her and shared the messages online.

Charlotte Dawson and Frankie Cocozza in series 3

Back in 2017 Charlotte Dawson looked to the dating agents to find her love with a civilian. Instead, she found a "genuine connection" with disgraced X Factor star Frankie, before accusing him of using her for air time. The pair no longer speak.

Tallia Storm and Seb Morris on series 4

Okay, okay, so not STRICTLY a forbidden romance, but Tallia Storm and Seb Morris were the OG exes on the show and it was SO CLEAR when the agents had them in a room together that there was still LOADS of chemistry between them.

Love Island's Olivia certainly had options on the show, reportedly hooking up with Ibiza Weekender's Callum Izzard, too. But it was Diversity Dancer and Jesy Nelson's ex Sam who she attended the final with, and fans were overjoyed at the union.

Jack Fincham and Lauren Goodger in series 7

These two Essex natives seem like the perfect match on paper, which is why we were gutted not to see more of their relationship play out. TOWIE's Lauren dropped some major hints she'd been getting intimate with the Love Island winner, but later left the agency early to focus on herself.

James Lock and Alison Hammond on series 8

Liv was also briefly linked to TOWIE's James but we much preferred the rumours about a romance with daytime telly hun Alison Hammond."I fell in love with James Lock on the show. This Greek God," she said at the time. "He did say one thing to me, he actually said, 'Alison you're my perfect girlfriend, personality-wise'."I was absolutely devastated. .so I went to the gym and worked out. So personality-wise I'm his perfect girl!"

Tom Zanetti and Sophie Hermann

Despite Celebs Go Dating the Mansion being rife with rumours of celeb pairings, it was superstar DJ Tom Zanetti and Made in Chelsea heiress Sophie Hermann who made a go of things. Viewers watched the pair flirt their way through the series before finally being set up on a date by Paul and Anna, with Anna telling Closer exclusively that "if a celeb starts to gravitate toward another celebrity, it is something we explore but we also try and keep them on the path of dating regular folk as well."

Pete Wicks and Shaughna Phillips in series 9

The celebs might have to maintain a safe distance for 2020's virtual series, but that didn't stop Pete and Love Island's Shaughna hitting it off. She denied any romance (boo!) but admitted, "Anna and Paul have actually said to me that they think me and Pete are alike in the sense that we kind of go along with things to be nice."That could be a perfect chemistry He's probably not my type on paper, but he's lovely."
