Recently, we reported that Ueto Aya and Morita Go ended their 8-year relationship in May, but Sanspo reported that Aya's found a new love: HIRO from EXILE.

According to Sanspo, Aya met him when she was 12 years old, as a young dance trainee. HIRO was her senior and helped her train; they have been close friends for years. However their relationship has changed since this summer, says Sanspo.

HIRO's agency commented, "HIRO says that the two of them have a good�relationship. It is�true�that Aya visits EXILE concerts often, and she is close to all the EXILE members, but we did not hear that they are dating from HIRO."

Aya's agency also demurred on the topic, saying, "We only know that she goes to their concerts, but she did not tell us about dating him. �We leave her private life alone, since she is an adult."
