SQUAD'S UP, LOU?
4 February 2007
New Bill star Louisa spotted with Chelsea player
HAS Louisa Lytton finally scored in the love stakes with a dashing Chelsea footballer?
I can reveal the Strictly Come Dancing beauty, 17, has secretly been spending time with Chelsea youth star Sam Hurrell, 18,
It's early days for Louisa and Sam, who were introduced through mutual pals. But I can reveal the pair have enjoyed a night out at London's Funky Buddha club. And they've also been shopping at Selfridges in Oxford Street. My spy tells me: "They're both trying to keep it as low-key as possible. Both Louisa and Sam have heav y work commitments, but they are enjoying each other's company when they do get together.
"Everyone is hoping it could be the beginning of a beautiful romance for them." Former EastEnders star Louisa - who joined ITV1 soap The Bill as a bobby a fortnight ago - has always gone to great lengths to keep her love life top secret.
Last year, she split from her first serious boyfriend, who I've called Mr X. Despite dating him for 16 months, Louisa never publicly revealed his name. All she would say was that he was an actor. She was then spotted sharing kisses and cuddles with hunky co-star Matt Di Angelo at the National TV Awards.
But Louisa later said they were just spending time together as Matt was trying to cheer her up.
Let's hope Louisa is a bit more forthcoming about Sam. But just in case she's not, I can tell you defender Sam hit the big time after winning Sky One's reality TV show Football Icon in 2005.
After beating off 20,000 rivals, he's now got a professional contract with Chelsea. Even so, just like Louisa, he still loves being at home with his mum and dad.
Sounds like she could have netted herself a real winner!
