Louise Redknapp has insisted she's in a "happy place," despite her ex-husband moving on with a rumoured new girlfriend.

The singer is currently putting on a brave face on holiday in Ibiza, as her ex-husband, Jamie Redknapp, goes public with his rumoured new girlfriend.

Louise, 45, reassured fans that she's coping after Jamie and rumoured new beau, Frida, hit the headlines over the weekend when they were spotted on a dog walk.

The mum - who shares two children, Charley, 16, and Beau, 11 - with Jamie ignored the reports and simply said, "The sun makes me happy."

She then shared a sizzling selfie of her beaming in a bikini and captioned the shot, "Happy place."

While it is said to be "early days," Jamie, 47, has "grown close" to Swedish stunner, Frida Andersson-Lourie.

An insider told the Sun on Sunday, "Jamie feels ready to move on from his marriage to Louise and is happy to be doing it with someone who has kids too and is financially secure.

“It’s early days for Jamie and Frida, but they have grown close and are really enjoying spending time together when they can.”

It's nice to see Louise with a smile on her face as she recently confessed to being "lonely" in lockdown. And fans agree.

One commented, "You will always be the most beautiful person inside and out. You have come out of something that could be strong enough to destroy anyone... but you have come out stronger and better. Kudos and love to you and your amazing family xxx"

While another said, "Lovely photo Louise and you have a beautiful smile."

The 45-year-old admitted she was "lonely" during an Instagram live chat in which she spoke about how she was dealing with being single in lockdown.

In answer to a question about her love life Louise said, “No I’m not dating. No one seems to want me. I’m happy.” Before joking that the dog is her “new boyfriend”.

Minutes later Louise’s ex-husband, Jamie, knocked on the door to drop something off for the kids and she confessed she was “lonely” after seven weeks of lockdown.

The former Strictly star revealed, “I think it feels like it’s being going on for a long time now and I think the longer it goes on the more we panic about jobs and for me it can be quite lonely.”

Thankfully she and ex-husband of 19 years Jamie remain close friends and "co-parent" their two children together.

"It's been really tough, but, you know, he's my best friend. "It's been really tough but things happen.
