Matt Cardle has finally addressed rumours that he was romancing Meghan Markle before she began dating her now husband Prince Harry.
The singer, 36, revealed during an appearance on Lorraine that he followed the actress on Twitter after appreciating her talent on legal drama Suits.
Although Meghan apparently responded to Matt and told him that she 'loved' his work, Matt assured viewers that their relationship was 'nothing'.

Discussing their correspondence, he said: 'It was so little then and if not nothing now. Yea, like I say it was nothing, it was absolutely nothing. It's quite funny how something can be made up from nothing.'
Meghan and the X-Factor winner started chatting online when Meghan was recently divorced from her first husband Trevor Engelson.
It was previously claimed that Matt was 'very flattered' when she said they should meet up, but 'ended up ghosting her' when he met his girlfriend, a source said.
