Gogglebox’s Scarlett Moffatt says she’s found “the one”… but it wasn’t the guy she met on First Dates
TV star found romance just a WEEK after going on Channel 4 dating show
SCARLETT Moffatt has posted a gushing tribute to "the love of her life" Luke Crodden as her Celebrity First Dates episode airs.
The Gogglebox star met her new man just a week after filming the Channel 4 show, where she was set up with a man named Tommy - a MMA fighter from Ireland.
Now she can't seem to get enough of Luke, frequently posting pictures with him on her social media accounts.
Tonight she called the stud "the one" as the pair tweeted along to her episode of the dating show from home.
Known for her witty one-liners, she wrote on Twitter: "So in an hour I will be watching first dates with my now boyfriend,this is more awkward than the time I watched basic instinct with my rents"
On the show, she told the First Dates camera:"How can I have so many followers on Twitter but not one person in real life wants to take us out? I don't understand!"
She then added: "I just want to be someone I can get that comfortable with they can see us without my fake tan on!"

The blunt Newcastle lass also praised her family's time on the smash hit Channel 4 show, calling her relationship with her mum and dad "like the Geordie Brady Bunch."
But she nearly didn't even get to see her date as she though the Maitre D' was accusing her of being a prostitute as he spoke about rom-com Pretty Woman.
Once she met Tommy she was surprised to discover the pair were already friends on Facebook.
The pair then spent an evening shared an evening of playful banter.
However, she later called a friend and said she wasn't interested, saying: "He doesn't ask any questions.
"I always thought I wanted someone super chatty - now I've got someone super chatty and I just want him to listen to me!"
When she returned, in a bid to keep her interested, the Irish hunk tried to win her back by doing a card trick. It failed.
While the date night with Tommy wasn't quite the success either had hoped - and are still friends on Facebook.
Soon after she met her bearded beau Luke and the Gogglebox star has been smitten ever since.
The pair sparked rumours that they have even got engaged after going public with their relationship in May after a selfie showed TV star Scarlett wearing a sparkling ring on her engagement finger.
Celebrity First Dates continues next Friday on Channel 4.
