Ruby Rose debuts video that brought her and lesbian ex back together

Ruby Rose and Jess Origliasso have taken their rekindled romance to the screen by playing lovers in The Veronicas' new video.

Orange is the New Black star Ruby stepped in to direct the new promo and suggested a make-out scene with her real-life girlfriend.

In the video, the couple play lovers, whose romance is tested when Rose's character becomes a drug addict and suffers an overdose.

There's also a bar fight scene in the video, during which Rose gets beaten up after a local hits on her girlfriend and refuses to take no for an answer.

Ruby and Jess were first linked back in 2008 in what was thought to be a brief on-off relationship. Reports of a rekindled romance began when Ruby posted photos of herself with Jess back in August (16), after splitting from girlfriend Harley Gusman, and the singer confirmed she and Ruby were back together earlier this month (Nov16).

"We have been friends for eight years, a really long time, and it was just honestly the craziest thing," The Veronicas star told Nova FM's Kent 'Smallzy' Small. "We just reconnected over doing this video. She wrote and directed it, and is in it with us and we just sort of fell in love."
