The `Judas` singer and the `Chicago Fire` actor started dating in 2011 after he played her love interest in her video for `You and I`, and while the pair briefly split in May, they are happier than ever.

Taylor told USA Today: "I don`t think I`ve ever said anything publicly up till now. But I`m happy. I`m in a relationship and I`m happy. Everything is great."

The laid back actor also revealed he loves to take time out in San Diego, California, when he isn?t working.

He said: "I like walking around the woods and riding a motorcycle by myself for hours at a time and not talking about work all the time."

While Taylor rarely speaks about their relationship, Gaga - who recently gained 25lbs - has opened up to say she`s happier than ever with her body, because Taylor is a huge fan of her new fuller figure.

Writing on her blog, she said: "My boyfriend prefers me curvier.

"When I eat and am healthy and not so worried about my looks. I`m happy. Happier than I`ve ever been. I am not going to go on a psycho-spree because of scrutiny. This is who I am. And I am proud at any size."
