Jermain Defoe has reportedly moved into a £3million mansion with his new model lover, who his ex wife claims he was cheating on her with during their short lived marriage.
The former footballer is said to have moved into a sprawling five-bedroom property in Hertfordshire – close to his work at the Spurs training ground where he coaches at the academy.
The 40-year-old hasn’t gone public with his relationship with Alisha LeMay but reports have now surfaced claiming the couple have taken their relationship to the next level and moved in together.
Earlier this week, Alisha took to her Instagram to tell fans how flustered she was “conducting about 400 people”, adding: “Why is moving so stressful?”
“I’ve literally not had a minute to myself. But all for a good cause.”

"Jermain and Alisha are loving life together."
The move comes after Jermain’s heartbroken ex-wife Donna Tierney claimed she knew he had an affair after she discovered a romantic card from another woman.
The former Spurs and West Ham star estranged wife, also 40, took to her Instagram Stories in March to share a picture of the birthday card she claims was sent by Alisha.
Jermain - who married Donna in June last year but reportedly split up with her just six months later - has been linked to the 31-year-old model since January but denied any involvement with her.
In January, he said he was surprised that news of him leaving the model's house was known.

He also told reporters: "I’m not in a relationship with anyone."
Donna has since taken to her social media to share a picture of the card the influencer reportedly sent him while they were still married.
"Hard work, Happy 40th Birthday my gorgeous, I'd bake you a cake if if I knew how to use the oven :) can't wait to do life with you," the card read.

Donna revealed she found the card hidden away in the closet. She shared what she felt was proof of his alleged infidelity with her followers.
She captioned the picture: "I found this at our home stuffed in a cupboard when cleaning.
"This is the card she sent to my husband a married man who I just married - marriage is meant to be doing life with someone."
Donna said the alleged affair is "no woman's fault" but criticised Alisha for "tormenting her" with games since August last year.
Jermain and Donna split just six months after their weddingThe alleged torments include social media posts of Alisa reportedly wearing the tracksuit Jermain wears to train Spurs academy players.
Other posts included lyrics to Stormzy's I Got My Smile Back and Lie About Us by Avant.
She captioned the 'proof' of torment: "Then I got sent this... this is only some of the examples of her taunting, she played games almost every day since August."
Jermain tied the knot with Donna in a fairytale wedding in June last year, with photos from their special day giving a glimpse inside the event.
The former footballer and the beauty therapist got married at the charming country house Cliveden House in Berkshire, with more than 300 guests in attendance.
Jermain and Donna - who got engaged in the summer of 2021 - enjoyed a three-day celebration of their union at the venue.
Meanwhile, in December last year, rumours started circulating that the two split after they spent Christmas apart.
Jermain was in St Lucia while Donna stayed in Glasgow with her family.
He was also pictured without his wedding ring in snaps on social media and Donna reverted to her maiden name Tierney across her own social media accounts.
She's also unfollowed her husband and both of the newlyweds have removed all pictures of their £200,000 wedding.
