Jack Tame Reveals He's Looking for Love, But He'd Be a "Terrible Boyfriend"

New York-based TVNZ correspondent Jack Tame says he's so keen to meet a special someone, he signed up to Tinder.

Tame, who is rumoured to be returning to New Zealand to co-host Breakfast alongside Hilary Barry, tells Woman's Day he recently signed up to several dating sites.

"I joined Tinder and OkCupid briefly, but it's just not me, eh," he tells the magazine.

"And I've just got Bumble, but the only time I remember to check it is when I'm in South Carolina or Iowa, then I'm like, 'This is hopeless. Even if I find the girl of my dreams, I don't think I'll be commuting between Des Moines and Harlem."

The 29-year-old, who is back in the country filling in for Mike Hosking on Seven Sharp, admits he'd be a terrible boyfriend because he's "a workaholic".

As well as being TV One's US correspondent, he also hosts a Newstalk ZB show on Saturday mornings and pens a weekly column for the Herald on Sunday.

"My life is totally imbalanced," he admits. "Whether it's dating or friends, so many times I've had to cancel for work. It's a selfish life ..."

Earlier this year, Tame was named among ELLE.com's 41 Most Eligible Bachelors.

If it does happen for him, Tame says he's looking for someone with "a bit of quirk and wit".

It is believed Tame and Hilary Barry are set to host a revamped Breakfast show on TV One.
