After weeks of speculation, Dove Cameron is dishing on her new, secret romance that is heating up faster than the world can grasp.

The Descendants 2 star and her ex-fiance Ryan McCartan called it quits a few months ago and ever since then, Dove has been dropping hints that the relationship wasn't as perfect as everyone thought. She actually went so far to tell a fan on Twitter that Ryan was 'terrible' to her and that she's in a much happier place now. Yikes!

So, who is she in a much happier place with? Well, that part was all a bit blurry. Dove has been hanging out with her co-star Thomas Doherty for the past couple of weeks and even posted some vaguely scandalous photos with him. Because celebs love to be sneaky, no one was quite sure what to make of this. They did work together, which would obviously bring them closer together, but her fans never expected this to turn into a full-on relationship.

Finally, Dove has cleared the air and confirmed that she IS dating Thomas! No. Freaking. WAY. In an interview with People magazine, Dove said, "We’re dating. I’m keeping it sort of…we’re keeping it to ourselves because everything is just so more romantic and real when it’s yours and it’s private. So we are keeping the details to ourselves, but yeah, we’re dating."

Yasss! This is incredible and just goes to show that she had been keeping a secret all along. Not only did she open up about this secret life of hers, but she also talked about how they will make their long distance relationship work. Thomas is based in London which isn't the ideal situation, but the Disney Channel star doesn't seem too bothered by it.

She said, "It’s not too bad, we are both working and we are busy humans. It’s nice. We can chunk out visiting, and you work out the time difference. When I’m getting up, he’s going to sleep, and it’s nice. It’s not too bad. We make an effort. It’s interesting, things like that make you make an effort."

Aww! Well, clearly she's elated about her new love life. But, that's not all she said. She actually exposed the details of how their romance came to be and from the info she gives, the whole thing seemed super innocent at first.

Dove said, "It was not right away. It was one of those natural evolutions…but you know, again, I’m going to stay tight-lipped about that. But he’s a lovely, lovely person."

Our hearts are melting! Here's to Dove's new relationship and her sharing the biggest secret of her life right now.
