Actress Courteney Cox has moved in with her new boyfriend, Snow Patrol guitarist Johnny Mcdaid, into her Malibu mansion, says a close friend.

The `Friends` actress was first linked to the Northern Irish musician in December, last year when they were spotted together at a party.

The relationship is still going strong and the couple's mutual friend, British singer Ed Sheeran, has now revealed that MCDaid is living with Cox in her Malibu mansion, reports contactmusic.com.

Sheeran tells Scotland's Daily Record newspaper, "I'm not sure if it's public knowledge, so maybe I shouldn't have said anything - but yes, they're already living together. Things are moving fast. He moved in and, judging by the last time I saw them, they couldn't be happier. They get on really well and are genuinely good friends, pardon the pun."

When asked if the couple might marry soon, he added: "I wouldn't be surprised, but it's still early days. They certainly enjoy each other's company and feel very comfortable with each other."
