Max George shocked as Maisie Smith says she has no plans to move to Manchester for him

Loose Women viewers were thrilled during Thursday's instalment of the ITV programme as Max George and Maisie Smith delivered their first interview since unveiling their romance.

The Wanted singer Max, 34, fell head over heels for former EastEnders star Maisie, 21, when the pair grew close during the Strictly Come Dancing tour.

Despite the fact Max and Maisie have only been dating for a couple of months, with the pair revealing their relationship back in June, they are planning on buying their first property together next year after they spend their first Christmas together later this month.

While Maisie has grown up in London all her life, Max calls Manchester home - and is hoping to spend most of his time there next year.

However, Maisie clearly has other plans, as she told her beau live on Loose Women that she's hoping to stay in London for the foreseeable - leaving her boyfriend visibly shocked.

"It's the first I've heard," Max jokingly complained. "I was just about to put down two deposits on two different places in Manchester. Good thing I didn't."

Eventually, Maisie admitted that she will think about moving up North if Max lets her 'do up' their place with her own interior input.

During the candid Loose Women chat, I'm Glad You Came hit-maker Max revealed that the 13-year age gap between him and his girlfriend Maisie doesn't bother him.

Sharing snaps of themselves on several sun-kissed holidays, the pair haven't been shy in sharing the affections and have now opened up about their surprise romance.

When asked if their age difference bothers them, Maisie said: "People ask me: 'Do you notice it?' and I never have. We're so like-minded. I've got friends in their 30s and 40s. You connect with who you connect with.

Speaking to HELLO! magazine earlier this month, Max also said: "It never enters my mind. Maisie has already done so many things that I'm in awe of – I look up to her."

The actress, who stuns in the new pics sporting a bright orange suit, is currently starring as Fran in Strictly Ballroom: The Musical.

Gushing about how supportive Max is, she said: "When I get off a train, Max will be standing on the platform with a bouquet of flowers and I feel like I'm in a movie. It's every girl's dream and I've found it in Max."

Maisie also said dating The Wanted star was the 'best decision' she's made.

The actress also set tongues wagging on the couple's latest holiday when she appeared to be rocking an engagement ring.

Fans were convinced Max had popped the question as Maisie hugged her beau aboard an open-top bus – sporting a sparkler on her ring finger.

However, it appears the couple are content with their relationship status for now – after all, they've only been officially dating for three months.

The former EastEnders actress first met Max in 2020 while competing in the same series of the BBC show.

Max seems to be smitten with Maisie having recently tattooed the star's face on his arm.
