Mod Sun has appeared to confirm his new romance with Love Is Blind alum Brittany Wisniewski.

The 37-year-old rock star — whose engagement to Avril Lavigne, 40, ended last year — told TMZ 'things are great' with him and the 33-year-old reality television personality on Wednesday.

Asked if the relationship is 'official,' Mod Sun, born Derek Ryan Smith, answered: 'Life is better when we’re together.'

The two were spotted holding hands while on their way to eat at Craig’s in Los Angeles when the outlet caught up with them.

Mod also said that they met in Washington, D.C. and added that at the time he 'didn’t' know Wisniewski had been on the Netflix dating series earlier this year.

'It just happened,' he explained of their paths crossing.

Smith and Wisniewski were initially linked last month when the blonde bombshell attended his concert.

They were later seen canoodling at a Los Angeles bar, and then were then spotted enjoying dinner at Catch Steak on another occasion.

Prior to that, the two had a flirty exchange on Instagram in early November.

The music artist paused his show after being alerted that Brittany and Love Is Blind co-star Hannah Jiles were in the crowd.

He later wrote across a video shared on Instagram: 'When I realized the girls from "love is blind" were at my show.'

The clip showed him asking from stage, 'Okay, respectfully, respectfully... Are both of you on the show Love Is Blind?' 

He then declared, 'I love your show!'

'Ummmm hi,' he captioned the video, tagging Brittany's social media handle.

'Oh hi,' Brittany commented with a red lip emoji before the singer-songwriter wrote back, '<33333 u seem cool <33333.'

Brittany was engaged to her LIB co-star Leo Braudy briefly, before the two decided they work better as friends.

Wisniewski told Entertainment Weekly in October that 'there wasn’t anything major' that caused their split.

She said, 'Honestly, I sometimes wish there was, because maybe it would give a better explanation to why things didn’t work out. It’s really just, you know when it’s right and you just know when it’s not, and we’re better off as friends.'

Avril confirmed in March 2023 that she had moved on from her engagement to Mod with rapper Tyga. She and the rapper broke up after a short-lived fling.

Lavigne and Smith previously got engaged to during a March 2022 trip to Paris.
