He never officially confirmed that he was in a relationship with blonde Playboy Playmate Bryana Holly - despite being spotted on numerous occasions with the busty babe.

But now 5SOS rocker Ashton Irwin has revealed he and Bryana were indeed an item, but have since split, during an interview with SiriusXM DJ Howard Stern on Monday.

The 21-year-old joined his fellow band-mates for the chat and without mentioning Bryana's name, implied it was her and they had gone their separate ways, saying: 'I actually tried to have a relationship and it just didn't work out.'

'I've been away for six months...and I was kind of seeing someone for about a year but I worked it out and I'd actually been with them for approximately two months out of that year,' he said, suggesting the long distance with him on the road all the time got the better of them. 

After being asked if the woman in question was a model, Ashton said she was.

'She does do stuff like that, yeah,' he said.

The chat took an almost inappropriate turn with Howard asking if there was 'anything better than having sex with a model.'

Ashton tried to brush off the question, saying 'oh man,' while Michael Clifford stepped in and said he himself, has 'never' had sex with a model. 

Calum Hood then questioned Michael, asking 'sex with a model or just sex?'

Ashton, who hails from Sydney's Hornsby, has been linked to Bryana for the past year and the pair had been spotted together across Europe and in the US.
