" Jody Latham has reportedly been left &amp;quot;gutted and devastated&amp;quot; by Tulisa Contostavlos. The Shameless actor was recently romantically linked with the X Factor judge, before it was reported that she has started a relationship with footballer Danny Simpson.   Latham spent a romantic week with Tulisa at her London flat making future plans, before she suddenly ended their fling, according to The Sun. A source close to Latham said: &amp;quot;He thought he had a future with Tulisa. She said she wanted to get married and have children in the near future. They spent a week together in secret in her flat in London and barely left each other&amp;#039;s sides. &amp;quot;She was vulnerable when she wasn&amp;#039;t on the TV and he wanted to protect her. He would have done anything for her - but then she just turned cold on him. &amp;quot;From getting 30 text messages a day from her, he suddenly started to get only a couple. And then she went to Manchester and said she was staying in with friends so she couldn&amp;#039;t meet up with him. Jody is gutted, he feels like an idiot.&amp;quot;      The pair are said to have first got close in October when he played her boyfriend in the video for her new track &amp;#039;Sight of You&amp;#039;. The source continued: &amp;quot;It was clear on set that they liked each other. Tulisa&amp;#039;s always been a Shameless fan, and actually contacted Jody herself and asked him to be in the video. &amp;quot;That night she invited him to her hotel suite and they kissed for the first time. From then on they were talking constantly. &amp;quot;Tulisa loved the fact that Jody&amp;#039;s so caring. He treated her with respect and doted on her.&amp;quot;   Speaking of the pair&amp;#039;s split, the source added: &amp;quot;She came to Manchester and said she was in a hotel but didn&amp;#039;t have time to meet as she was with her mates. There were less texts and phone calls, she was clearly cooling things. &amp;quot;That night Jody went to a bar and saw her there. He went to talk to her and she had just disappeared. Next morning he sent her a text to end the relationship, but said he wanted to stay friends. &amp;quot;He and Tulisa kept messaging, but then he got a text saying she was dating Danny. She said she was so sorry and didn&amp;#039;t cheat on him. He said he&amp;#039;d stay friends, but a lot&amp;#039;s happened now. He&amp;#039;s upset.&amp;quot; Latham reportedly spotted Tulisa with Simpson at a club on the same day she ended their relationship.
