Jeremy McConnell confirms new relationship

It looks like Jeremy McConnell is all loved-up.

The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant shared the below photo on Instagram Stories, saying that he was “so happy”.

He didn’t refer to who his new girlfriend was but the caption and accompanying heart emojis are major hints that the father of one has struck up a new romance.

However, his ex, Stephanie Davis is reportedly upset by the news now that it’s been confirmed via social media.

Although Steph is rumoured to be dating Ricky Rayment of TOWIE fame, this has not yet been confirmed and she’s said to be upset by Jeremy’s decision to go public with his new partner.

A source close to Steph told The Mirror“:

“Stephanie was just about holding it together until this photo confirmed he’s moving on.

“It was all fun and games when she was toying with the fact she might be seeing someone when she isn’t. So for Jez to have moved on first has absolutely killed her.”

Stephanie, who became famous as a result of her acting role in Hollyoaks, has had quite a turbulent relationship with Jeremy, the father of her son Caben-Ali.

Caben-Ali is now nine months and during that time they have reunited and broken up again with Jeremy given a suspended jail sentence for assaulting his ex-partner.

He was also ordered to complete 200 hours unpaid work, pay Stephanie £1,000 in compensation and carry out a Building Better Relationships course.
