After much speculation, Dev and Freida's secret romance has been exposed...but who let the cat out the bag?

Dev Patel's mum just couldn't hold in her excitement any longer and confirmed that  Slumdog Millionaire co-stars Dev Patel and Freida Pinto are a proper couple (trust the 'rents to be embarassing)!

Mrs Patel spoke after Dev flew out to Israel for a whirlwind date with Freida, while she is out there filming new movie Miral.  She said: "First it was the film and now everything else seems to have slotted into place,"

Mrs Patel added: "Life can't get any better for him.  Freida is really beautiful, and I am really happy for them."

Skins seems like a lifetime ago for Dev, who is also filming new movie The Last Airbender, and we reckon Dev and Freida could become the next Brangelina!

Do you think Dev and Freida make a good couple?  Will the 6 year age gap be a problem for them?
