‘Back on the dating scene’

A source told The Sun at the time: “Helen’s officially back on the dating scene.  She’s been seeing someone on/off for a while but has said they’re better off as friends. But she did really like dating him.

“Everything’s really casual and she’s taking things slow. She doesn’t want anything serious.”
