Geri Halliwell has been secretly dating comedian David Walliams since the New Year, according to a report.

The Spice Girl has been friends with the Little Britain star for a few years but they have only recently become an item.

"They have been secretly dating since the New Year and nobody knows," a source told the Mirror, adding: "They are very tactile with each other and he's such a gent.

"Geri just can't stop smiling... They will be gutted when news of their relationship leaks as until now they've been able to carry on without anyone knowing."

Meanwhile, Geri's bandmates have suggested that George Clooney ask her out following his recent praise for her charity efforts and admission that she was his favorite Spice Girl.
