Love is in the air for The X Factor's Tahnie and Jesse!

It seems love is in the air for The X Factor’s Tahnie Cristini and Jesse Teinaki.

The XOX singer and the wildcard contestant have reportedly grown close since meeting at the auditions for the reality TV show.

Speaking to Sydney Confidential, Tahnie revealed that she has a “crush” on the tradie from Tasmania.

“He’s cute and funny and we will see how things go,” she said.

While Jesse didn’t make it through to the live shows, the 19-year-old brunette from Wollongong admitted that she has kept in touch with the hunky 21-year-old, ever since he left the competition.
