Are these Shorty siblings dating?

Shortland Street actors Luke Patrick (who plays Frank Connelly) and Lucy Lovegrove (Sass Conelly) have been spotted getting cosy, snuggling up together in some recent social snaps.

Is it the wintery cold snap we’re experiencing… or something more?

Just last night, Aussies Luke and Lucy cuddled up to watch the State of Origin game with a few friends, including their third ‘sibling’ Lukas Whiting (Finn Conelly).

The onscreen Shortland Street siblings are Chris Warner’s  children – triplets fathered through a sperm donation in the mid-90s.

Just four days ago the pair sat down together to watch the Lions and the All Blacks draw at Eden Park.

Eagle-eyed fans have been quick to ask questions, with some wondering if it’s a bit weird to be dating an onscreen sibling.
