(Chubs: Is Callaghan sound?? I really question his state of mind........duh!) Chubs is totally bitchy when it comes to P.Hanson.

Pauline Hanson is in love.

The 52-year-old former One Nation Leader, famous for her outspoken views on race and immigration, says she has fallen for country music singer and songwriter Chris Callaghan.

"We have both been pretty much looking for that perfect partner for the past 10 years and we've found it in each other and I think it's absolutely fantastic (chubs: oh gosh...confirm unsound)," Mr Callaghan told the Nine Network as he held hands with Ms Hanson.

He is seven years her junior and like Ms Hanson, has also been married before.

Ms Hanson met Mr Callaghan nine years ago at the Tamworth Country Music Festival in northern NSW.

He said he wanted to ask her out for a cup of coffee but was interrupted as he was speaking and the two did not meet again for another three years.

It was a further six years before he asked her to go out again.

"She's very down to earth and very soft in her nature," said Mr Callaghan. (Chubs: Sir, did you mention she is RACIST??!............soft in her nature.....are you mad?!)

"I've never met a more proud Australian than Pauline," Mr Callaghan said. (Chubs: Do the maths....Proud Australian, Patriotic fellow....doesnt equate to being a racist!!!)

The pair have been going out for three weeks and he's even written a song for her. (Chubs: what? the Fish & Chips song??)

"I love it. I absolutely love it," said Ms Hanson. (Chubs: ohh..watever.......)

On Sunday, Ms Hanson said she was "amazed" and "mystified" she had Middle Eastern heritage after a recent DNA swab revealed the controversial former MP's genetic makeup was drawn from a rich multicultural background. (Chubs: Yar......they wear the tudung, maybe you should too, Ms Hanson)

The swab shows her ancestry was nine per cent of Middle Eastern origin, 32 per cent from Italy, Greece or Turkey and 59 per cent from northern Europe. (Chubs: pls...hope you are not from Greece, pls do not tarnish the mythical greeks genes...)
