Hollyoaks star Stephanie Waring is reportedly dating one of her newest co-stars – in spite of being photographed cosying up to rugby player, Max Evans.
The Sun reports that the 39-year-old actress is dating new Hollyoaks star, 22-year-old Adam Woodward, who joined the soap earlier this year, playing ladies’ man, Brody Hudson.
According to The Sun’s TV source, the pair have been trying to keep their relationship a secret, but have struggled to hide their attraction.

“Steph and Adam hit it off as soon as he arrived on set in the summer,” the source said.
“They’ve been trying to keep their romance under wraps but their feelings for each other have become pretty clear to cast and crew.
“There’s an obvious attraction between them and they always seem to find time to be together during filming.
“Steph has had a tough time when it comes to her love life but Adam has finally put a smile back on her face.”
Steph has signed up to the new series of Dancing On Ice and just last week at the ITV Gala, she was seen holding hands and reportedly kissed fellow contestant, rugby player Max Evans.
Pals have said the pair are just good friends, but does that mean her romance with Adam is the real deal?
Stephanie has been training hard ahead of the reality show – sharing clips of her practice sessions to Instagram.
She seems to be getting more confident – her latest post showed her practising several moves, with an optimistic caption.
