Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo have rekindled their romance after splitting in June.
Nick Lachey has confirmed he is back with Vanessa Minnillo.
The former boy band star, who split from the 28-year-old MTV presenter in June after three years together, is delighted to have rekindled the romance.
He said: "I am happy in a relationship. I was single for a minute, there, and then we've kind of patched things up. She is a very smart girl. She's far smarter than I!"
The couple took time apart to reevaluate their relationship, but quickly realised they couldn't live without each other.
A source explained: "They've always had a lot of love for each other, but they took a little break, and now they're working on their relationship."
The pair sparked rumours they had reunited in August, when they were spotted passionately kissing during a night out in Los Angeles.
Nick, 35, said in September: "We're trying to figure things out. I don't pretend to know what the future holds, but everything's good. Vanessa's a good girl, and I care about her a lot." |
