The 'One Thing' singer took to his Twitter account to comment on how "beautiful" she looked while watching ITV show This Morning.
He tweeted: "That girl on @itvthismorning is beautiful !"
Shortly after, he then posted a picture of himself and a friend holding up a sheet of paper saying "hello Rachel" on – which was sent to the show.
