Lewis Capaldi has confirmed he has a girlfriend, saying he’s dating a “posh redhead”.
Although, the Before You Go hitmaker seemed to shy away from dishing out many details and reframed from identifying his new love fully.
The singer, 23, confessed all during a chat on Capital FM, when he was hung up on a question which prompted for his response of preferring to be “single” or in a “relationship”.
Being caught off-guard and unprepared for his answer, Lewis who had kept his relationship low key until now, sent listeners into a frenzy as he revealed his secret girlfriend live on air.
Speaking on the radio show while stumbling on the question, Lewis revealed: ‘Well, I’m in a relationship, so if I said the other one, my girlfriend would kill me.”
It was at this point, he’d realised he hadn’t actually ever admitted that he had a girlfriend and chose to only give away two descriptives about his mystery lady.
‘I’ve never told anybody that I’m in a relationship, so there you go…She’s got red hair, she’s got quite a posh voice. And that’s that, that’s all your getting.”

His confessions didn’t end there, with the Scottish star revealing that he was missing his significant other after they had both isolated separately during the Covid-19 lockdown.
While Lewis chose not to identify his new flame, there are rumours that Catherine Halliday, 21, could be the secret woman in question.
According to the Sun, Catherine and Lewis were spotted enjoyed a number of “flirty” and low profile dates that had taken place in Prezzo, in his hometown of West Lothian.

An insider revealed to the publication: “They were being very flirty and seemed to be having fun, both laughing and joking a lot, touching hands and being tactile.
“You’d never know he was one of the biggest stars in the country and it’s a very low key place to go and eat but he obviously doesn’t go in for all the fancy celebrity stuff.
“They were holding hands as they left and went for the car, and Lewis posed for a couple of photos with fans and then climbed into a Fiesta and drove off.”
Other than the fact Catherine, has long auburn hair and is age 21, there doesn’t seem to be much more information to verify that she is Lewis’ significant other at this stage.
The Daily Star has contacted Lewis’ representatives for comment.
