Joshua Jackson turns to dating apps

Actor Joshua Jackson is reportedly using apps in a bid to find love.

The 38-year-old "Dawson's Creek" actor is reportedly hitting the dating scene hard in a bid to distract himself from his former long-term partner Diane Kruger, who he split from last year after almost a decade together.

The actress has since moved on with "Walking Dead" actor Norman Reedus, reported Contactmusic.

"Josh is playing the field and has even started using dating apps. He's still cut up about Norman and Diane, but getting back into the dating scene has been a welcome distraction," a source says.

"It won't be surprising if he's seen with a lot of other women in the coming weeks, but the ones he's been seeing so far haven't been involved in the showbiz industry.
