Great British Bake Off 2019 contestants Alice Fevronia, 28, and Henry Bird, 20, are now dating
BAKE Off contestants Alice Fevronia and Henry Bird are feeling the heat after falling for each other post-filming, we can reveal.
They bonded on the current Channel 4 series and have since been out on a number of dates.
Geography teacher Alice, 28, has also introduced student Henry, 20, to her friends.
They are the show’s first contestants to find romance with a rival baker.
Viewers last week saw Alice hugging an upset Henry after his showstopper melted.
One source said: “The Bake Off contestants do become very close, and Alice and Henry hit it off from the start as they have a lot in common.
“They confided in each other a lot during the process, which can be quite intense at times.
“And since filming finished they have been spending more time together — including a few dates.
“It is early days but they are a lovely couple and seem very happy.
“Pals have been joking that it’s the cherry on top of the experience.”
Alice, from Essex, and Henry, from Durham, have posted a string of loved-up snaps on Instagram to fellow contestants’ delight.
Underneath one shot — at London’s Tate Modern this month — baker Michael Chakraverty wrote: “Such a beautiful couple.”
Another contestant, Helena Garcia, added: “You two couldn’t possibly be more adorable.”
Dan Chambers, who was axed in week one, commented: “You guys!!!” followed by three heart emojis.
Henry also posted a photo of Turkish bread last week.
Alice wrote: “These had better bloody be waiting for me when I get there tonight.”
Our source added: “Alice has now introduced Henry to her closest friends, which was obviously seen as a sign of how much she likes him. And the feeling is definitely mutual.
“Who knows what will happen, but it looks like their relationship has all the right ingredients.”
