Sam Smith is dating a video extra.
The 22-year-old singer met his beau Jonathan while recording the video for his latest single ‘Like I Can’ but insists their relationship is still in its early stages.
He explained: "It’s very early days. I’m talking very, very, very early days.
"But he’s really sweet. I met him on the video for ‘Like I Can’, he was one of 20 extras."
The six-time Grammy Award nominee is enjoying seeing the hunk, but admitted he is unsure about their status.
He added: "It’s a surreal thing to be talking about because I haven’t even confirmed with him that we’re officially seeing each other."
The ‘Stay With Me’ singer released his chart-topping debut album ‘In the Lonely Hour’ – which follows the theme of unrequited love – earlier this year, and said he doesn’t think he’ll ever release a positive album because he doesn’t expect the relationship to last.
He said: "But people need to realise I’m never going to be happy.
"The reason I do what I do is because I’m an artist who is always going to be blue about something.
"It’s just the way I am – I’m an emotional person."
The star – who had never dated before meeting his current boyfriend – revealed he is convinced the pairing will end in misery.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he added: "I’m going to go fall in love with as many people as I can and get my heart broken."
