Ready To Mingle's secret gay couple revealed

The identity of the secret gay couple competing on ITV2's Ready To Mingle is revealed.

Dark horse Louis H is in a relationship and has a boyfriend, it was revealed on tonight's episode of Ready To Mingle.

The ITV2 dating show features a group of guys - all claiming to be single - competing for the affections of single girl Sophia, but half of them are in fact in relationships and are only pretending to be single to win the show's big cash prize.

Earlier this week the partners of the coupled-up boys moved in to an apartment nearby to keep an eye on their men - and among them was Joe, who is coupled up with one of the boys in the main house.

Tonight that boy was revealed to be Louis H, who made his first move of the competition by giving Sophia a peck on the lips during a group game.

"I can put my hand on my heart that I do not have a girlfriend," he explained in his VT. "That part is true. She just hasn't realised that there could potentially be someone with a boyfriend. So savage!"

Louis continued: "Me and Joe have been in a relationship now for eight months. We have got two challenges to face here - not only have I got to pretend to be single, I've also got to pretend to be straight.

"I'm hoping that Joe won't feel jealous or paranoid to think that I am doing anything to jeopardise our relationship."

Ready To Mingle continues Friday at 9pm on ITV2.
