A close friend of Tulisa Contostavlos has responded to talk of romance with fellow I'm a Celebrity campmate Alan Halsall.
Earlier this week on the ITV reality show, the N-Dubz star opened up about her love life, sharing that she identifies as demisexual and has been celibate for three years.
Chatter has suggested she and Coronation Street star Alan are getting close, especially after the pair won a challenge. The two have even been affectionately nicknamed N-Dobbs, in reference to Alan's character Tyrone Dobbs.

Speaking on yesterday's (November 20) Lorraine, Tulisa's friend Michelle McKenna spoke to the host about a potential romance for the star.
"I think she definitely would like to meet someone," she said. "It's been a long time. But it's meeting the right one isn't it? But she's going with the flow."

Lorraine then asked: "What are we thinking? Because obviously she's getting on very well with Alan. They are both single, there is of course this N-Dobbs thing with their name… So you never know, is what I am saying?"
"You never know… We will have to watch it," Michelle added.

Speaking in the camp on Tuesday's (November 19) episode, Tulisa said of her dating life: "I’m proper guarded. I’ll speak to people and then I’ll drag it out and I won’t actually go on the dates and then I’ll get a red flag and be like, 'Bye see ya'."
She went on to explain that she feels "a bit demisexual" – a sexual orientation where an individual feels sexual attraction to someone only after they've formed a strong emotional bond.
"It doesn’t necessarily need to feel like my future husband [but] I’ve met you for a reason, I can teach you things and you can teach me things. I need meaning. I need real depth," she added.
I'm a Celebrity… airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
