A particular showbiz coupling has us doing a big double take when we frist heard about it. But now we know exactly how Pop Idol Darius Danesh got together with Species acterss Natasha Henstridge.

Natasha told OK! magazine :"We literally met in the street.H was checking out of the Argyle Hotel Sunset Boulevard and I met him at the Traffic lights. "It was awkward,but then we started talking and the lights changed from green to red so many times must ahve talked for about half an hour an dthen he asked for my number".

"It's perrty unusual to meet some one in that way here." and by all accounts,thiongs seem to be going very well indeed-they have recently moved in together in LA.

Natasha explanied what makes their relation ship work,"Taking it one day at a time and compormise-supporting each other but knowing where the boundaries are ".

And for the difficult bits ,she added "Letting go of our egos is a big one! we are both conscious of it though".

Natasha has two sons Tristen seven, and Asher four, from her prevoius marriasge to actor Liam Waite.

Could Darius be in line to take a more permanent position in Natasha's life? She said:I would like marriage again when the time's right".

Hats on Standby then.
