The Irish heart-throb previously said he would like date someone who doesn't care about his job and is completely removed from the acting world.

"I’ve been in that world before where you’re with someone who does the same thing and it can be quite difficult sometimes because that’s all you are," he told the Sun.

"You go home and talk about casting directors, the press and the next job and it becomes quite dull.
