James Haskell and Celebs Go Dating star Tom Read Wilson have fans buzzing after sharing cozy, intimate photos that have left followers questioning: Is this the start of something special?
Taking to Instagram, the former rugby star posted three adorable snaps with his arm wrapped around Wilson, captioning the post, “The look of love” and adding a heart emoji. Wilson quickly shared the post on his own Instagram story, calling it “unexpected” alongside a kissing face emoji.
Both stars are familiar faces from I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, with Haskell participating in the 2019 series and Wilson appearing on the most recent season. But this new interaction has fans wondering if there’s more than just friendship between them.
Some eagle-eyed followers suspect the pair may be joining forces for the upcoming season of Celebs Go Dating, where Wilson works as a client coordinator, helping celebrities find love. Meanwhile, Haskell is navigating life post-divorce from his wife, Chloe Madeley, and is ready to meet new people and explore meaningful connections.

Haskell, now 40, revealed he’s excited about the opportunity to take part in the dating show. “I’m at a stage in my life where I know exactly who I am and what I want,” he said. “I’m looking forward to meeting amazing people, having some fun, and maybe even finding something meaningful along the way.”
In the past, Haskell has been an outspoken supporter of LGBTQ+ athletes, advocating for a more inclusive and accepting sports world where players don’t feel the need to “come out” just as he didn’t feel the need to announce he was straight.
Could this unexpected pairing be the beginning of something real? Fans are eagerly waiting to see how this sweet connection unfolds… Stay tuned!
