Jamie Kennedy confirmed he is dating his Ghost Whisperer co-star, Jennifer Love Hewitt.

“Yes, I’m just gonna say it, yes we are dating,” he revealed this morning on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show. “Wow, I’ve never said that. We’re more than dating … we’re more than in love. We have an intense connection. She’s my Bella. I don’t want to bite her neck, but I want her to live. … I’m in love, and I don’t care!”

The couple had been denying that there was a relationship for weeks prior. Kennedy said of the relationship, “I thought it was something I would find in my 40s, it’s like, ‘Wow, you are hot. You can sing, you can dance, you’re, like, so smart and, wow, you can cook pasta fagioli too.’”

Love Hewitt split from fiance Ross McCall in December after three years together.
