Louise Redknapp has taken a huge step with her new man, Drew Michael.
The Eternal star, 49, took to social media today showing off a loved-up snap of the pair, who were joined by the singer's eldest son, Charley, 19. The mum-of-two, who split with ex Jamie Redknapp in 2017, has kept her new romance largely under wraps.
However, she looked delighted in the gorgeous photo on Instagram, cuddled up to Drew in a candlelit restaurant. Telling fans it was her boyfriend's birthday, she wrote: "Have a great day @thedrew.michael Happy Birthday x."
Sporting a sheer black lace top with her blonde locks poker straight, the Naked star smiles in the snap as does Drew, who has his arm around Louise. Charley, looking dapper in a mint green shirt, is also smiling, apparently happy to be in the couple's company.

There have been plenty of eyes on Louise’s love life since her split from Jamie six years ago. And although she has been open to the idea of meeting someone, the singer and West End star has wanted life to stay consistent for the sake of her two teenage sons: Charley, who is in college in the US and Beau, 15.
Opening up about her relationship with Drew to the Mirror after the pair were papped leaving Jimmy Carr's birthday at the Groucho Club, she said: “It’s so difficult with your personal life... it’s all good."
Since their divorce in 2017, Jamie, 50, has remarried and had a baby with model Frida Andersson, 38, while Louise maintained staying single would be best for their boys. “I’ve felt this as a mum and, to say this in the most sort of respectful way, my boys’ lives changed dramatically and then it changed again when obviously Jamie got married and had a family,” she said earlier this year. "Their life changed and I felt like I needed to be their one staple.”
Admitting it was nice to have met someone after being on her "for a long time", Louise told the Loose Women in September: "I'm very happy, he's great and lovely. It's really nice, it's been a really long time for me. I've been on my own for a long time and it's lovely to have met someone who makes me so happy."
