Matt Bellamy has joined his girlfriend Elle Evans in Cannes

Matt has been linked to the actress since February, but has stayed tight-lipped about their relationship, despite reports that things are "getting serious" between them. However Elle hinted that they were dating when asked about her relationship status by TMZ.

"No comment," she replied, before changing her mind and confirming that she was dating someone. When asked if she thought the 37-year-old would make a good boyfriend, Elle quipped: "I'm sure he's an angel."

The outing comes after Matt admitted that he was feeling "really good" following his split from fiancé Kate Hudson.

"Look. We had a great relationship, she's a lovely person, we're better off as friends," he told NME. "Definitely in the last few months I've been feeling much better. Actually, I've been feeling really good."
