Girls Aloud beauty Cheryl Cole has told of her "intense" love for her backing dancer beau Tre Holloway.

The pair went public with their relationship earlier this year after quietly dating for a few months. Cole kissed the dancer on stage during a gig in Manchester - before admitting the pair were an item in her recent documentary 'Cheryl Cole: Access All Areas'.

The stunning star told The Sun: “I am experiencing a really intense situation. I look for someone with a personality, charm and connection. I love having people around who feel like family.”

She continued: “You are experiencing a really intense relationship.”

Cole also gushed about Holloway's talent.

She said: “There’s an intensity, there’s a trust, there’s a love — a genuine love. He is very experienced in what he is doing. He is a ridiculously talented character.”

Cole spent the day in London yesterday promoting her new autobiography at the Corinthia Hotel where she also gushed about her younger brother.

She said: “My little brother Gary is vital to me, he keeps it extremely real — some might say too real.

“He’ll tell me if he thinks something’s rubbish, no problem. It’s lovely to have the comfort of a bit of home. Someone who knows me from my old life. I love having him around.”
