The N-Dubz star has been on several dates with the 21-year-old hunk – best known for playing drug dealer James Cook in Skins – at Mayfair’s Aura nightclub last week, and the 23-year-old beauty is said to be attracted to him because he makes her laugh.
A source told the Daily Mirror: “It’s early days but Jack is very much Tulisa’s type – edgy and cool. He’s a really funny guy and makes her laugh a lot.
“They have quite a few mutual friends. It’s been a smooth transition from mates to something more.”
An insider added to The Sun: “Tulisa likes him because he is – to use her words – a ‘bit of rough’.”
Jack – who also starred as Pukey Nicholls in Shane Meadows’ movie This is England – is thought to be flying to the US, where Tulisa has been recording tracks for new album and filming a video for her first solo release Young, to film a new role.
Tulisa – who split with her N-Dubz bandmate Fazer in January – recently admitted she is “seeing someone”, and she played down reports of a romance with reality TV star Mark Wright after he posted a picture of the pair in Florida together on his twitter account.
In a rant on her twitter page, she said: “I have sumthin 2 say 2day… 1. people make me sick the things they do 4 cash, disgustin.
2. why am I meant 2 b bangin every guy Im seen with?”
3. I have DEFFINITELY NOT sh****d mark wright and I can swear that on my uncle B’s GRAVE”
