Cheryl Cole's new boyfriend Tre Holloway is actually called Walter Holloway III, and lives in a small room in Los Angeles.
The jobbing dancer calls himself Tre to boost his super cool image, but The Sun has revealed that Holloway's actual life is a modest one compared to Cole, who is worth an estimated £12m.
They met at The X Factor live final in 2010, and have been spotted on several dates recently - including one in London on Thursday night.
Cheryl also performed with him at G.A.Y earlier this year
Tre has tried to keep his romance secret, with his pal Tony Testa saying: "This is the first I've heard about it. I don't even know who Cheryl Cole is."
Tre's mother Shirley recently made a public plea to the singer not to mess with Tre.
She told The Sun: "She might hurt him. She's been married before. I don't know Cheryl. I've only seen pictures on the internet. Tre said she was pretty big (in the UK). He's been dancing for her for a couple of years now, I think. He mentioned that one day last month they went somewhere. He never said she was his girlfriend. But he said, 'Oh, she likes me'. I got the feeling he was maybe quite into her."
The newspaper also claims that he is set to meet Cheryl's parents next month.
