THIS could be the best unlikely romance since TONY ADAMS dated CAPRICE.
Model CARA DELEVINGNE and Geordie Shore star GAZ have been exchanging secret flirty messages online.
The reality star has somehow impressed Cara with his boozy antics on the MTV show.
It appears he’s received direct messages on Twitter from Cara — and didn’t need much encouragement to continue the chat.
A source said: “It’s been going on for about two weeks.
“Cara has a real crush on Gaz and he’s lapping it up. He can’t believe his luck.
“Cara doesn’t really have a type so none of her pals are surprised she’s attracted to Gaz.”
Gaz — whose full name is Gary Beadle — is so chuffed he was showing pals the messages on a recent lads’ holiday to Marbella.
The pair swapped Twitter messages publicly on Friday which stemmed from private conversations about their boozing abilities.
Cara wrote: “@GazGShore the battle is yet to begin but the war is already won! Are you ready for a challenge?”
Gaz then replied: “@Caradelevingne next Sunday your ass is mine hope ya not a bad loser #bluewkdlightweight haha!! #goingtogetmessy.” Their public flirting continued when Cara wrote back to him: “@GazGShore we will see about that!”
Cheeky Gaz hit back with: “@Caradelevingne My victory dance is already planned don’t worry I’ll hold ya hair back.”
The Geordie shagger describes himself as the “ultimate lad” and has featured in every series of the reality show.
The sixth series — which sees the gang travel to Sydney — starts on MTV next month.
Gaz has yet to bag any celebrity girlfriends but he’s likely to be content with getting his way with most of the female population of Newcastle.
Cara has been linked with HARRY STYLES and singer JAKE BUGG.
Slight change of direction then...
