Swansea City footballer Liam Cullen is rumored to be Paige Thorne’s new lover following her breakup with Love Island’s Adam Collard.

After being friends for a while, the Welsh paramedic reportedly fell in love with the athlete and started spending time with him on a romantic basis.

A source close to Paige and Liam told OK! that they are just starting their romance but are already having a good time together.

According to the source, “Paige is dating football player Liam Cullen and things are going pretty well.” The honeymoon period has just just begun, but thus far she’s thrilled.

Someone close to Paige said they are hoping Liam can help her recover her trust in love after the scandalous end to her relationship with Adam.

After her breakup with Adam, Paige was jaded about romantic relationships and wasn’t actively seeking one out. “But she’s having a great time with Liam,” the source continued.

In September of last year, Paige and Liam were first seen together in public, at Thorpe Park’s Fright Night event. Even if they were simply friends at first, it seems like something more romantic has developed between them because Paige, 24, has been seen at Swansea matches of Liam, 23.

Paige has not commented on the rumors of a possible romance.
