'Outnumbered's Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner are dating.
Hugh Dennis
The pair - who played harrassed parents in the BBC One sitcom - have reportedly been in a relationship for the past year after splitting up with their respective partners.
Claire, 53, split from her husband Charles Palmer two and a half years ago, while Hugh. 56, and his wife Kate Abbot-Anderson broke up in 2015.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "It's always a sad moment when a marriage breaks up. So to have found each other after the ending of both their ¬relationships is rather lovely.
"They were going through marriage breakdowns at very similar times, but it was quite a while after their sep¬arations that they got together last year.
"Between the end of the last series of 'Outnumbered' in 2014 and the Christmas ¬special in 2016, they didn't actually see each other for two years.
"They've always been really friendly but they were living their own lives until they were both single."
The pair have been open about their relationship with family and close friends and have been spotted together at a number of public events recently but it had been presumed that they were just friends.
An insider explained: "They've been out in public quite a lot, just no one has quite cottoned on to it."
Claire has two sons, William, 19, and Henry, 16, with Charles, while Hugh has children Freddie, 21, and Meg, 19.
