We pressed further and he confirmed that his new girlfriend is in her twenties, but as a result he also said it's hard juggling a long distance relationship.
"Yes, she’s younger, but I’m in my peak, so it’s good," he explained.
"It’s hard at the minute. I’m going to go to the States very soon, and obviously we're still talking.
"I'll pick things up when I go back over there, but at the minute it's difficult because if you're having a long-distance relationship, it's always hard – having any relationship is hard.
"And we’re both in the same sort of industry, and it’s tough, but we're still in contact, and we'll both pick things back up when I'm over there. I'm going to LA towards the end of the year – January [time]."
