But The Sun has exclusively learnt that he previously dated Gloucester-based student, Evie-May Bishop.
A source told us: "Ciaran and Evie were together for under a year in 2022 - after he briefly dated a 42 year old.
"They met each other’s families and went on a luxury holiday to Rhodes, as well as race days together.
"Unfortunately, they split because of the distance. It was just so hard for them to maintain a relationship.

This comes after Nicole's rugby player ex-boyfriend was revealed.
She dated Paddy McBride, who is a deadringer for her current squeeze Ciaran.

Nicole's short relationship with Ciaran hasn't been without its drama.
Tensions boiled over just days into the series as Nicole and Harriett Blackmore clashed after the latter broke girl code.
Nicole, 24, was initially paired with Sean Stone but quickly began bonding with Ciaran, who was partnered with Brighton girl Harriett.
Despite knowing Nicole had the hots for Ciaran, Harriett decided to crack on with him without warning.
When Nicole found out they had snogged in bed, she fumed to Jess White: "Is she taking the pi**? He kissed her last night.
"She just pulled me and said 'be honest with me, be honest with me'. Didn't even f***ing tell me Jess, that he kissed her last night in bed.
"She can f*** off. So can he."
