Louise Redknapp, 49, goes Instagram official with her hunky new boyfriend Drew ... trends now

Louise Redknapp has marked an important milestone in her new relationship - going Instagram official.

The singer, 49, made her first public appearance with her new beau Drew Michael,  in September but on Tuesday she shared her first social media snaps with him. 

Marking Drew's 40th birthday, Louise wrote: 'Have a great day @thedrew.michael Happy Birthday x.'

She shared a series of photos of the pair as they celebrated in a plush restaurant with her eldest son Charley, 19, whose dad is Louise's ex-husband Jamie Redknapp.

Louise looked incredible in a sheer black lace top for the dinner, cosying up to her boyfriend.

It is the first public relationship for the star since her 2017 divorce from former footballer Jamie, who is now married to model Frida Andersson.

She later shared another cosy photo of them together on her Instagram Story as they posed for a selfie, alongside the caption 'happy birthday'.

Drew has an impressive career as chief executive officer at Overwatch Group, also known as Overwatch Aerospace Ltd.

He is a former military officer having worked as a platoon commander and a fire support group commander for the forces.

In 2010 he was given a mention in Despatches for his work with The Rifles as part of the Operational Honours and Awards List, with a total of 130 members of the Armed Forces receiving honours and awards.

He now works in the aerospace and defence industry, where he supplies strategic war equipment to the Royal Marines and the British Army - a far cry from Louise's high-profile circle of celebrity friends.

Andrew was a student at the University of Nottingham between 2002 and 2005 and he went to Pangbourne College in Reading, Berkshire.

The couple were first spotted together in September as they left The Groucho Club where they helped Louise's close friend, comedian Jimmy Carr, celebrate his 51st birthday.
