Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt has denied rumours that she's seeing Ant McPartlin after the speculation began to swirl after eagle-eyed (bored) Instagram users spotted a picture of the two beside her bed.
After posting a selfie on Sunday, Moffatt was the subject of internet gossip, with some social media users noticing the photo, which is located next to a bed with four legs and a black duvet, or possibly a white duvet with a black throw, it's hard to tell.
The photo shows her and Ant McPartlin, and was taken while the two were filming Saturday Night Takeaway.

McPartlin recently split from his wife, Lisa Armstrong, but has dismissed rumours of a relationship with Moffatt as 'total bullshit'.
Reading through the comments on Instagram, you will discover that a number of people had taken her photo to mean that she and McPartlin were now an item.
One user commented: "Busted..... nobody keeps a photo of their coworkers besides their bedside table unless they are more than friendly. His poor wife."
Moffatt immediately responded by saying: "Well I do. Ant and Dec are my heroes x"

Instagram users continued to question the reasons behind Moffatt's post and the photo on her bedside, though many were quick to defend the young celebrity.
"Do you know Scarlett or Ant personally?" wrote one user. "No. So you cannot be sure that them two are dating. You're just speculating and commenting horrible stuff like that to her, due to what you think is right. It's a picture for god sake!! And I'm pretty sure that it's not just Scarlett and Ant in the photo, if you zoom in there's a third person. But even if they are seeing each other, so what?! It's their business and doesn't concern no one else."
Another user said: "Hot digetty damn, that's a great looking lamp behind you." That needed to be said. It is an incredibly good lamp.
Eventually, Moffatt took to Twitter to dispel rumours of a relationship between herself and Ant.
Moffatt first hit British television screens in 2013's Beauty School Cop Outs, where young British and Irish beauty school students learned the ins and outs of the beautifying trade.

She became a regular on Googlebox the following year before winning I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2016. In January last year it was announced that she would be joining Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway.
