‘I’VE FINALLY FOUND LOVE!’
The unlucky-in-love Australian Idol alum finds her life partner at last
After a tumultuous romantic life over the years, Aussie singing sweetheart Casey Donovan is now all smiles after finding true love. Woman’s Day can exclusively reveal that Casey, 32, has been dating Jade Sharp for months now, with the pair so in love they’re planning to move in together!
According to a friend close to the couple, Casey has been dating the hospitality manager since last November, and while she’s attempting to keep their romance low-key, she has been enjoying the newfound confidence dating a woman has given her.
“This is such a good thing for Casey,” the insider tells Woman’s Day. “While she’s always been confident, she’s still navigating her way through the aftermath of being catfished for six years.
“But Jade is letting her go at her own pace. She isn’t being pushy at all and Casey trusts her wholeheartedly.”
We’re told Casey’s friends have never seen the singer so happy and content, and have credited Jade for the positive changes.
“Casey has a whole new lease on life now,” says one pal.
While the couple are taking things step by step, the excitement of new love has taken over, with Jade now practically living with Casey in her inner-city Melbourne apartment!
In December, Casey told Woman’s Day she was nervously gearing up to help Jade’s family cook up a huge Christmas feast. “I’m spending my day with her family... I’m not nervous at all,” she joked of the pair’s festive plans.
Finding love has been a dream come true for Casey, after she was infamously catfished in 2004 by her best friend Olga, who conned her into a six-year relationship with a non-existent man named Campbell.
While Casey identified as straight at the time, she admitted to sleeping with Olga after she was coerced into it by “Campbell”.
