Laura Crane dating Made in Chelsea’s Tristan Phipps

Former ‘Love Island’ star Laura Crane is dating Made in Chelsea’s Tristan Phipps.
The 23-year-old pro-surfer confirmed she and 24-year-old TV personality – who met in November at a charity boxing match – are together, and admitted her parents "approve" of Tristan.
Speaking at the Nordoff Robbins Legends of Rugby dinner at the Grosvenor Hotel in London last night (16.01.19), she told The Sun newspaper: "We’re an official couple and I’m very happy. My parents know and approve."
Tristan said: "We’ve been dating since November and now we’re official."
An onlooker added: "Laura and Tristan couldn’t keep their hands off each other and seemed very loved up on the night, it was really cute."
When they arrived at the launch, the blonde – who is embarking on her first new romance since she split from ITV co-star Jack Fowler in September – posted a selfie of her and her new beau cuddling up together.
Laura and 22-year-old personal trainer Jack departed the villa as a couple in the summer, but she later admitted they had been "taking it slower" since they re-entered the real world.
She said: "We’re not officially boyfriend and girlfriend. Since we came out we are taking it slower.
"We’re just not rushing. We’ve seen other things go wrong, but we do have genuine feelings. I trust him and I will trust him until I have reason not to."
Just two months after ‘Love Island’, the reality TV couple called time on their romance.
Laura explained: "Sadly Jack and I have both decided to go our separate ways due to such busy schedules right now and not having the time to spend together."
