Fling or Ring? Tara and Duncan

AKA: Tara P-T

Years racked up: A youthful 32

Known for?: Being utterly, utterly barking. Started off as an intensely irritating 'It' girl, penning loathsome column in Style mag about her vacuous celebrity lifestyle. After humiliating herself on the Frank Skinner show in 1998, she packed off to rehab clinic for cocaine addiction, and has re-invented herself as a loveably barmy bit of posh totty, coming second in the first series of I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!

Is involved in a love thing with...

Who? Duncan James

AKA: Dunc. The smoothie out of Blue

Years racked up: 25

Known for?: Er, being the smoothie out of we're-about-to-split-up boyband Blue, squiring many beauties around town whilst professing undying love for ex-girlfriend Anya Lahiri. He got her back last year — and then lost her again.

Romance rocketed when: Who knows, really? This super-flirty pair have known each other for years, and have long been the subject of romantic rumours — constantly rebuffed by them both. But Duncan recently confessed to heat magazine that they did have a "mess about" (eurgh) when they shacked up in a Greek villa together last month.

Make or break: At the moment. Duncan and Tara are both exceptionally showbizzy and flirty — meaning it will be unlikely they'll pledge undying faithfulness to each other. Tara's previously commented that Duncan's ex-girlfriend had room to be jealous, because he was a "naughty boy". And they've got a TV production company together. Mixing business with pleasure? Recipe for disaster...

Soppy speak: Duncan boasts, "When I met Tara she made it quite clear that she fancied me...I liked her personality — I like eccentric, mad people." Liked, Duncan? What's with this past tense thingummy? And Tara has gone on the record to promise that they're not a couple — "I'll always love him, but just as a mate - and that's it."

Biz Bitch says: Sadly, we reckon there’s not much going on here with the two of them - both up top and down below (heh heh). And we reckon because of this they should stop their incessant flirting and bantering - we're bored of it. What's far more intriguing is the rumoured romance between Dunky-boy and La Geri Halliwell...
