The former couple met in the summer of 2013 on the set of their movie 'Tracers' and were first seen holding hands as they walked around SoHo in New York in late July that year.

Taylor - who has also dated two other co-stars, Lily Collins from his 2011 movie 'Abduction' and Taylor Swift, who he appeared alongside in 'Valentine's Day' - has previously admitted he thinks he is a very "loyal" boyfriend and believes "honesty" is vital to a relationship.

He has said in the past: "Honestly and loyalty are key. If two people can be honest with each other about everything, that's probably the biggest key to success. I like to think of myself as very loyal, and I love everyone I surround myself with, whether they're friends or girlfriends or whatever. I love loyal people."
