OMG! Catherine Tate dating Take That's Jason Orange?

Unlikely pair met during Comic Relief sketch

Catherine Tate also appeared in Doctor Who as Donna Noble

Comedienne Catherine Tate and Take That's Jason Orange are rumoured to be dating after meeting at Comic Relief in March.

The pair have stayed in contact since Catherine, 43, played the singer in spoof pop group Fake That, who had the real boy band - including Jason - appearing alongside them.

'It's a very unlikely pairing but they've really hit it off,' says a friend.

'They've been on a number of dates to the theatre and to the cinema. They really enjoy each other's company.'

Jason, 41, has also reportedly been seen leaving Catherine's South West London home on a Sunday morning.

'Catherine deserves someone nice and has really landed on her feet with Jason,' the friend tells the Sun.

'But they have both been desperate to keep their romance secret.'

Catherine - mum to Erin, 9 - has reportedly been dating Jason since the summer after she split from her stage manager partner Twig Clark, 38.
