Dating Taylor has DJ Calvin in happy spin

-

DJ Calvin Harris has opened up about his headline- grabbing romance with pop superstar Taylor Swift for the first time, hailing the relationsh­ip as “absolutely fantastic” and revealing the singer has made him “insanely happy”.

The Scottish dance music star has been dating the Shake It Off songstress since February, and although neither of them has publicly confirmed the romance, they have occasional­ly shown fans photograph­s of them together and have been pictured hand- in- hand while out and about.

Now Harris has finally broken his silence on the much talked- about relationsh­ip and revealed he and Swift are amused by the lengths commentato­rs will go to keep the story at the top of the news agenda.

“It’s going absolutely fantastic. It’s interestin­g because obviously there’s different things written about it every day and even if we don’t do anything publicly for a while, someone will make something up ...” he told Britain’s KISS FM Breakfast Show. “For me it could be a lot worse and I’d still be like insanely happy with her, so

Neighbours I’m good with it ... It does get more and more ridiculous, from me apparently being allergic to cats or Taylor and I are moving in together or we’re getting married next week. It’s a lot but you’ve just got to take it how it is, which is that it’s a news story that people read but it’s just not real life ...

“Then on the other hand, real life is happening. There’s a whole bunch of times where we’ve been hanging out and nobody’s clocked it ( noticed). It’s not like every single time we go out, we get a photograph taken of us.” CARLA Bonner has returned “home” to Ramsay Street.

The Neighbours favourite started filming last week after rejoining the core cast as her previous character Stephanie Scully.

“The faces have changed but you just step back into a place and it’s like coming home,” Bonner said.

“It’s an institutio­n for the fans and it’s a reliable place. The producers had discussed potential storylines, which reignited my passion for Steph and I was ready to bring back the character. It just feels right.”

Bonner left the popular show in 2010 and briefly returned in 2013.

One of the familiar faces on set is her son Harley Bonner, who is one of the new breed of Neighbours rising stars.

“We were in the make- up room together and it was so cool, a really good moment,” Bonner said.

“He’s very devoted and passionate, and loves what he does. It’s a real buzz.”
