His rock star transformation on The X Factor turned him into an unlikely heart-throb but it appears Dean Ray is now off the market.

Sources have revealed the 22-year-old singer is romancing another performer and reality show alumnus, Bonnie Anderson.

The 19-year-old former Australia's Got Talent winner has been seen on a number of occasions at the Bondi Junction hotel where Ray and the rest of The X Factor contestants are staying.

But in a recent interview, Anderson was tight-lipped on whether she and Ray were in a relationship.

"I couldn't say," she told an Eastern States paper when asked whether she and Ray were dating.

"Yeah we do know each other. He's awesome, I do like what he is doing. I do like it. That's a curly question."

Both singers also share the same manager in Ralph Carr, who also manages Kate Ceberano.
