Former Big Brother winner Tim Dormer, found himself in the headlines this week after he announced he’s in love with his best friend Ash Toweel.

The curly haired star, who was also runner up on Celebrity Apprentice made the sweet declaration of love on his Instagram account. Earlier this year he spoke to Who magazine about finding love and even mentioned that it may be with the Sydney-based bar manager.

“I’ve always been about finding the right person,” Dormer told Who Magazine. “I’ve dated girls, but have always been open to dating guys.”

Dormer, 32, says he met Toweel, 27, at a party in 2014 and the pair hit it off right away.  But it was only in May, when Dormer spent three months overseas competing in the fourth season of Big Brother Canada, that he realised that he was in love with his friend.

“I’ve loved sharing my life on social media, but there’s one special part of my life I haven’t shared with you all until now … this last year I fell in LOVE with the most beautiful person. His name is Ash, he’s my best friend and he truly gets me and has made me very happy!” Dormer wrote on Instagram yesterday.

I’ve loved sharing my life on social media, but there’s one special part of my life I haven’t shared with you all until now…this last year I fell in LOVE with the most beautiful person. His name is Ash, he’s my best friend and he truly gets me and has made me very happy! I’ve always considered my sexuality to be fluid and I’ve never been interested in labels which categorise and divide. I’m only interested in celebrating what we all have in common, the freedom to share the most precious beautiful gift that holds this magnificent universe together…LOVE. I’m proud to now share our story in the hope that other misfits like myself who don’t quite know where they fit in life won’t give up. LOVE yourself, and I hope one day LOVE finds us all! And for those who don’t understand us…I hope you get there one day. Check out this weeks @whomagazine where Ash and I shared our full story freely for you to read. ?❤️

Dormer describes his sexuality as fluid and says while he has dated women in the past he has always been open to dating men.

We wish the happy couple all the best who are are now living together in an apartment in Bondi.
