Even though Jessica Sanchez and DeAndre Brackensick may not have won the title of this year’s American Idol - the still walked away from Season 11 with something pretty special.

Each other.

During a UStream chat with fans yesterday Jessica, 16, revealed the romance she and DeAndre, 17, had been keeping under wraps… until now!

I got a secret and I want you guys to guess. I’ll nod if it’s no or yes!

After one fan asked if she had a boyfriend, Jessica replied:

Yup. DeAndre. Hahah. He’s my boyfriend. Love you guys. Byeeee!

With million of Idol fans understandably all aflutter, DeAndre took to his official Twitter account to set the record straight.

Me and Jessica are officially dating : ) Yes Jessica is my girlfriend : )

Congrats you two crazy kids!

Phillip Phillips Wins American Idol: Season 11

Written by Kelly Bandas on May 24, 2012 – 10:37 am -

Phillip Phillips Phans all over the country rejoiced last night, when the 20-year-old singer was crowned the winner of American Idol:  Season 11, beating out fellow finalist Jessica Sanchez.

The Georgia native was noticeably absent from the Idol Finale festivities, which we can only assume was due to his increasingly worsening kidney issue that will force him to undergo surgery within the next few weeks.

It’s no secret that here at GossipTeen, we’ve been on the Phil-train since the beginning, so we were so excited to see our boy go home a winner.  Not to mention, how freaking adorable was it that he was so moved that he had to leave the stage and run into the arms of his mom and dad?

Love it!

Check out Phillip Phillip’s Idol-winning performance of his single “Home”, below.
