The dancer, who has been linked to the "X Factor" judge in recent months, only told her they were going to Tanzania when they arrived at the airport. The duo did indulge in any public display of affection at London's Heathrow airport Tuesday night, reports dailymail.co.uk.

"(The holiday) was a complete surprise to Cheryl and she couldn't believe he had gone to so much trouble organising it," said a source close to the couple.

Since her split from her errant England and Chelsea footballer husband Ashley Cole earlier this year, Hough, 25, has been the man in 26-year-old Cole's life.

"It will be one of those dream romantic holidays that you take when you are just starting out on a relationship. Derek is totally in love with the girl and wants to spend as much time as he can with her," the source added.

Hough is said to have picked the east African country after the singer told him she fell in love with the country after she visited it last year.
