Their friendship started in 2023, just a year after Helen and her ex-husband, Richie Myles, divorced.
Helen and Richie were married eight years and had three children together. But in 2022, they divorced, and while Helen has not been officially linked to anyone since, he now has two children with his new partner.
Meanwhile, following from Gethin's engagement to Katherine Jenkins, which ended in 2011, he has had a string of short relationships.
The two became friends when they both started to work on Morning Live together, but Helen and Gethin crossed paths before. She told HELLO!: "Gethin and I have all been friends for years and years. Gethin and I crossed over a lot at Blue Peter, so we've got a lot of the same reference points."
Romance rumours
Rumours circulated that their friendship had developed into something else after they were seen leaving the BAFTAs together in May.
Though neither confirmed a relationship, they were spotted again with each other off-set several times. This included a brunch in Manchester and a spa day. Fans were further convinced of the relationship when Gethin posted a birthday message to Helen on Instagram.
Split rumours
Fans feared the relationship was short-lived when Gethin was spotted on celebrity dating app Raya whilst on holiday with friends. The Welshman had jetted off to Australia to watch the British & Irish Lions' tour.
A source told the Mail Online: "Gethin is on the prowl Down Under which puts the nail in the coffin for his romance with Helen. He’s there with pals but keen to meet other women.
"There is no way Helen would stand for that if they were together and he has far too much respect for her to even go behind her back. Despite having an increasingly close connection it’s cooled down significantly which is gutting for fans who really wanted them to be together."
Rekindling rumours
Since then though, the two have reignited romance rumours. Earlier this month, fans were hopeful the two were back on when Helen posted a video to her Instagram of clips from a day of filming with Gethin, and set it to Taylor Swift's latest love song The Fate of Ophelia.
Their latest outing together has added fuel to the fire, as fans hope their red carpet reunion is a sign things are hotting up between the duo.
