It depends on your agency's policies.
If you value your career, you must immediately inform management or HR of your relationship. Don't wait and let them discover the truth for themselves. Never attempt to hide it. There will always be someone who will become suspicious of you and try to blackmail or rat you out.
If your employer has an HR department, inform them right away that you are involved with a team member and that the relationship existed before you were promoted. They can arrange for you and your partner to have separate reporting lines, to have one person's department changed, or even to have your promotion rescinded.

Management will either ignore the situation or move your partner to another department or shift so that you are no longer in charge of them.
Oh no!
It really depends. Some agencies are strict when it comes to this matter. You might want to check your agency's policies.
Do not say anything yet. Check your agency's policy first. Some agencies are okay with this stuff.
