Is there love on the horizon for EastEnders' Fatboy?

Actor Ricky Norwood certainly hopes so, and he's got the perfect woman in mind - his real-life girlfriend, Sugababe Jade Ewen.

Speaking on the red carpet before winning the Most Popular Newcomer gong at the National Television Awards, the actor joked that casting Jade as a love interest would limit her violent reactions when she spots him kissing other girls in the name of acting.
He said: "That would be great for me. It would stop the bruises on my arm, let me tell you."

Jade responded: "Every time he kisses someone else, I'm like, 'Why do these writers keep making you kiss other women?' He doesn't warn me either so I have no moment to prepare. I just see it."

And the singer thinks she has the acting chops to join the 'Enders crew, although she wouldn't want to abandon music completely.

"I've done a lot of acting. I did lots of TV shows and a series in Australia but my favourite is singing.

"I'd like to go back to it one day as long as I can still sing."

Jade certainly looked comfortable as she mingled with soap royalty at the glam TV awards.
