Niall Horan & Hailee Steinfeld Were Spotted Kissing Backstage At BBC Event

It seems to be a pop star romance for Niall Horan and Hailee Steinfeld, who were recently spotted kissing one another, according to Radio 1 producer Fiona Hanlon via a new report from The Sun.

"They were snogging, they were. So cute," the producer said of the stars, who performed at BBC's Biggest Weekend in Swansea a few days ago. It's the latest crumble of information on Horan and Steinfeld's rumored romance, which has been bubbling non-stop for the last few months. Back in March, Steinfeld offered up a clue when she uploaded a photo of herself wearing a Horan merch t-shirt. Additionally, the caption to the hot shot was none other than coordinates to the O2 Academy in Brixton, London, which just so happened to be the venue that the former One Direction star had played two days prior.

In a previous interview with Us Weekly, the actress-turned-singer remained mum on the subject of a romance with Horan, but didn't necessarily deny it either. "I feel so lucky that [my fans] care enough about me to know what I'm doing every second of every day, but I think that sometimes it's hard for people to realize that there are boundaries to a person's life and personal life," she explained. "I am a very private person. I do love that I have the opportunity to share with them what I'm comfortable with and they're there to listen and support me."
