Ending weeks of speculation, "Sexiest Doctor Alive" Mikhail Varshavski has admitted that he is indeed going out with Miss Unvierse 2015 Pia Wurtzbach.

Varshavski made the admission in an interview with celebrity website Wonderwall where he was quoted as saying: "I am dating Pia. It's a fairly new relationship but I'm really excited to see where it can go!"

Rumors about the Filipina dating Varshavski, who was featured in People magazine's 2015 "Sexiest Man Alive" issue, began swirling when the two met in New York last month.

During a Facebook Q&A session last week, Wurztbach did not give a direct answer when she was asked if she is dating Varshavski. Wurtzbach said she will reveal her relationship status at the right time.

Varshavski is a Russian-born doctor working at the Overlook Medical Center in New Jersey. Known as Dr. Mike for short, the 26-year-old has more than one million followers on Instagram.

In an interview with the Huffington Post back in January, Varshavski admitted that he is "actively looking for a serious relationship and surprisingly this fame has not made it simpler to find a compatible partner."

Around the same time, Wurtzbach described her "ideal man" as someone who is smart and has a good sense of humor. "Those are the two qualities that are important to me," she said.

Other men who have been linked to Wurtzbach since she won the Miss Universe crown last December include ABS-CBN reporter Atom Araullo and Hollywood actor James Franco.

Wurtzbach, however, has repeatedly maintained that her focus remains to be on her duties as the reigning Miss Universe and on her advocacy of raising awareness on HIV.
