Singer Leona Lewis has finally given our eager ears some juice on where her relationship with One Direction boybander Liam Payne actually stands.

   According to early reports, Lewis and Payne started a hush-hush romance back in September of this year.

Now,  27 year-old Lewis has been publicly raving about her new fella even though she said she would never talk to the media or her fans about dating the heartthrob.

Lewis says the couple tries see each other when they can. She said: “You’d be surprised how much we have in common. He’s great.”

She added: “It’s cute. I’m having fun and enjoying myself. If you have a bond with someone, age doesn’t come into it. I’d date someone younger or older – it doesn’t matter to me. Or looks, really – it’s all about maturity.”

Oo-er, Leona!

One Direction came in third place on the “X Factor” UK in 2010 and Lewis was the winner of the 2006 series. So this pair have a lot in common…Good luck to them!
