(MEGA)“Everyone knows that Renee and I have become quite close, [but] we kept it a secret for a while, and unfortunately, some pictures were taken and put out there,” Ant said. The couple met on the set of the Discovery+ series, Celebrity IOU: Joyride. The couple went Instagram Official in September 2021, three months after the first report of their romance surfaced.

I’m really grateful for the show because these amazing things happen in your world, and sometimes when things collide, they collide at the most obscure times when you least expect them. And that’s what happened in this case. I’m grateful for that.”
