Can't hide their love: Cat Deeley and her comedian beau Patrick Kietly appear finally ready to openly acknowledge their relationship, and were spotted furniture shopping together in West Hollywood

They've been coy about their blossoming romance.

But Cat Deeley and her comedian beau Patrick Kielty appear finally ready to openly acknowledge their relationship.

The pair, who have been friends for 10 years, spent the day furniture shopping together hand in hand in West Hollywood, the first time they have been spotted out as a couple.

They are reportedly renovating Cat's £1.7million Beverly Hills mansion, and planning to move in together.


It seems clear that the news indicates that Cat, 35, and Patrick, 41, are in it for the long haul.

'They’re a beautiful couple and it is wonderful to see them settling down and building a life together,' a source told the Sunday Mirror.

'Patrick always said this is the year he wants to get ­married. And with him now living with Cat and spending most of his free time with her, we think he could pop the question literally any day now.'

Wedding bells? Patrick made it known last year that he has been thinking of tying the knot in 2012, saying: 'I think that might be my New Year's resolution... to get married'

'They are definitely in it for the long term.'

He and Cat have been friends since they hosted one of the original TV talent shows Fame Academy together from 2002.

The pair fuelled romance rumours when they took their second holiday together in February this year, having already enjoyed a break in Northern Ireland.

Cat beamed from ear to ear as she was photographed after enjoying a five-day break in the Mexican resort of Cabo San Lucas with Patrick.

A source told the People at the time: 'They looked like they were getting on very well indeed. They certainly have people ­guessing if they are the real deal.'

Irish comedian Patrick Kielty has revealed that he and Cat are a couple later that month when he referred to her as the 'special lady' in his life at the Electric House members' club.

Speaking about being unlucky in love recently, Cat said: 'I haven’t found my Prince Charming yet – and I’ve kissed a few frogs too! There are fit men everywhere, so it’s just a case of finding them. I’m working my way through them, one at a time!”

'Maybe I see myself with kids, given the right place and right ­moment, with the right person.

Patrick split from his long-term girlfriend Amanda Byram in 2003, while Cat's most recent relationship was with True Blood star Michael McMillian.

Cat also dated Leonardo Di Caprio and Jack Huston after her move to LA to host So You Think You Can Dance.
