Ant Anstead is opening up about his love life.
The 42-year-old reality star has been spotted on a few occasions with Oscar-winning actress Renée Zellweger but neither star has publicly addressed the rumored romance – until now.
On Wednesday, Anstead and his "Celebrity IOU: Joyride" co-host Cristy Lee made an appearance on E!'s "Daily Pop." Anstead was asked about Zellweger, who he met while filming her appearance on the Discovery+ show.
"Look … everybody knows that Renee and I have become quite close, because we kept it secret for a while, and unfortunately some pictures were taken and put out there," he said, per People magazine.
