Look, we're all friends here - this is the tree of trust. The honesty nest, if you will.
It's safe to say that at one stage or another we have all had a longing for someone who might not be considered everyone's cup of tae.
When you're faced with such a small pool of the same faces in the media every week, as we are in Ireland, people who you'd never usually flutter an eyelash at suddenly start to become, dare we say, sexaaay.
Occasionally, someone in the Lovin office will make a shocking declaration of love for a person that makes others squirm, so we've done a little survey and discovered 12 of our creepy colleagues' secret crushes.
No judgement here folks - this is a safe space. Now go forth and enjoy these homegrown heart-throbs <3
