An insider said: "Producers think Nick and Emily getting together would make good telly.
“Nick has a type and Emily fits the bill. And she hasn’t minded a famous boyfriend in the past.
"Everyone is watching closely and hoping for a proper spark.
“They’ve had a couple of moments on screen that producers thought was a good sign. They’re seeing how things develop.”
Dad-of-four Nick previously dated Towie star Pascal Craymer, 31, Emmerdale actress Gemma Oaten, 34, and was married to Jessica Moor - who is 25 years his junior and the daughter of one of his mates.
