The 32-year-old singer - who split with his ex-girlfriend Francesca Thomas, 27, in 2015 after three years - has revealed that his deepest fear is he'll never settle down and get married and have children.

He shared: "What's my deepest fear? Personally, never meeting the right person, getting married and having kids.

"I'm sure I could get married and have kids but I hope it's with the right person - that's my only fear. Obviously, there are much bigger things to be fearful of in the world."

The 'You Don't Know Love' hitmaker has begun to use different social media platforms to try and find potential dates as he thinks it's an "easy" way to meet ladies.

Speaking to the Metro newspaper, he said: "I've been on a few dates. You've got Twitter, Instagram, all these different social platforms. I'm not saying I need them to meet girls but it's easy to meet different people."

The pop star also revealed that he wasn't putting up "any barriers" in the search for a new lover and would be happy to date another celebrity or a regular girl.

He added: "I always felt like nah, I'd rather date a normal a girl, which I did. But you never know in this job whoever you meet along the way. If you connect with someone who happens to be doing the same job as you, that's amazing. It could be anyone, a random girl walking down the street. I wouldn't put a barrier up."

Olly's comments follow on from his previous admission that he isn't a fan of casual relationships or one night stands.

He said: "People would suspect that because I'm a pop star I'd be sleeping with different girls every week but that's not the kind of person I am. I'm no slapper!

"Of course, when I was younger and not interested in a serious relationship, I had a lot of fun but I'm not that kind of person now."
