'Renee is creative...and often goes for guys who think out of the box. She's smart, thoughtful and always looking to expand horizons and nurture those around her.'
The two first met earlier this month when they were both filming an episode of Ant's new Discovery+ show Celebrity IOU Joyride, and seemingly hit it off with one another.

The insider continued by saying: 'Both of them are private and dislike public scrutiny, so they have that in common. He's a creative guy with lots of interests, and she likes to write and produce, so they have things to talk about when together.'
TMZ claimed last week that romantic sparks began to fly between the pair when Renée returned to set after filming their episode of his show to 'drop off some work boots' for Ant.
Ant recently finalized his divorce from ex-wife, Flip or Flop star Christina Haack, with the pair sharing legal and physical custody of their 21-month-old son Hudson.
The UK born TV personality is also father to two children - son Archie, 14; and daughter Amelie, 17 - from his 12-year marriage to Louise Anstead, which ended in 2017.
