Factor judge Dannii went for a rugby union when she met former Leeds Rhino star Kris Smith in Ibiza three weeks ago.
The romance carried on when the holiday ended — and at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards this week Dannii, who revealed before going to Ibiza that she hadn’t had sex for a year, told me all about her 6ft 4ins lover.

Dannii confided: “Yeah, I do have a new man — I’m dating. He’s a very, very nice guy. I’m a very happy girl at present.
“Currently I know nothing about rugby but I’m learning. This is a good reason to start!”

Kris, who is now a rugby coach, was in Ibiza celebrating his 30th birthday when he spotted Dannii in bar in San Antonio.
He asked if he could buy her a drink and they clicked immediately. This holiday snap shows them looking chilled and loved up.
Dannii, who hosted the Nickelodeon TV Awards, which will be shown on the children’s channel on Saturday at 11am, told me she’s determined to have another X Factor winner this year after her triumph with Leon Jackson in the last series.
And she has tipped a woman to win. “I have to say I think the girls are strong,” she said.
“It’s the Leona Lewis effect —the girls are coming in hordes.”
