Andy Carroll went Instagram with new girlfriend Lou Teasdale on Thursday as he shared a cosy snap of the couple, months after he announced his split from wife Billi Mucklow.
The footballer, 35 and his former TOWIE star ex, 36, confirmed their divorce in September after secretly separating earlier this year, having been together for 11 years.
Andy has now gone official on social media with Lou as they cosied up for a picture on a staircase after first going public just weeks after announcing his divorce at a Halloween party.
Celebrity make-up artist Lou, 41, looked incredible in a black tank top which she tucked into a pair of stylish blue denim flared jeans.
The mother-of-one wore her long brunette tresses loose and layered a number of pieces of gold jewellery.
Andy coordinated with Lou in a black oversized T-shirt which he paired with wide legged trousers.

The footballer also beamed for a selfie with Lou and several friends while enjoying drinks in a bar.
He penned: 'Happy people happy places'.
It comes after Lou shared a gallery of snaps of the couple spending time together over the Christmas period including a picture of the couple at Winter Wonderland.
While Andy seemed smitten with his new love, he failed to share snaps with Lou at Christmas and instead posted a plethora of gorgeous snaps with his children, showing that he also spent the holidays with them.
Meanwhile, his estranged wife Billi posed for an adorable snap with the couple's children, with the family all rocking cute Christmas pyjamas.
It comes after Andy seemingly took a swipe at his estranged wife as he broke his silence over his new romance with Lou.
Speaking to The Times Andy gushed: 'I've seen a different world since I've been with Lou, This Christmas, like she does every Christmas, she will go with her daughter to look after the isolated elderly.
'She's a volunteer for Choose Love and a campaigner for LGBTQ+. She says to me, "Why would you hate anyone?'" That's someone I need in my life.'

Andy announced his split from the TOWIE star, 36, and mother of his three children in October after secretly separating earlier this year, having been together for 11 years
It comes after Andy was reportedly caught entering his former Essex home without informing his estranged wife.
The sportsman is said to have waited until she had left before going inside to collect some belongings.
However, the home's security cameras alerted her to his presence through her phone.
A source told The Sun: 'He was busted the moment he entered the property as Billi was alerted to his movements on their home CCTV, connected to her phone.
'She hadn’t realised he was back from France and was understandably shocked and upset. She watched the whole thing unfold on her phone. She felt it was sneaky.'
The pair, who married in 2022 after an eight-year engagement, announced their split earlier this year and are in the process of selling their £8.5 million mansion, once owned by Sir Rod Stewart.
MailOnline has approached Billi and Andy's representatives for comment.

'She's a volunteer for Choose Love and a campaigner for LGBTQ +. She says to me, "Why would you hate anyone?'" That's someone I need in my life
Andy said in a statement: 'Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are under way with our divorce proceedings.
Despite claims Billi was 'blindsided' by the relationship, friends of hers say that she 'knew Andy had someone' but she just wasn't sure who it was. She found out shortly before the romance was made public.
Billi's family are furious with her estranged husband Andy over the footballer's 'total lack of loyalty' towards her, MailOnline can reveal.
Her brother, another former reality star Sam, 32, who now runs a property construction firm, has cut ties completely with the former West Ham and Liverpool striker after he embarked on a new relationship with Lou in the wake of his marriage split with Billi.
Sam believes Andy's actions are particularly harsh on Billi given she has brought up his two eldest children from a previous relationship - Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 - as her own and will continue to do so despite the pair, who married in 2022, going their separate ways.
