Finding love again after a separation can seem like a bleak prospect, but Rachel Stevens shows that it can be a wonderful opportunity to find your real soul mate.
The S Club 7 singer has finally stepped out and become 'Instagram official' with her Dancing On Ice beau Brendyn Hatfield, sharing a rare peek into their ‘blended family’.
The 54-year-old met Brendyn in 2022 after the duo were paired together in the competition, but both Rachel and the dancer were in committed relationships at the time.
It was only after Rachel and her Estate Agent husband called time on their marriage after a decade together and Brendyn split with his wife Jessica, that the pair seemingly came together.

Rachel shared a festive picture online with her daughters Amelie, 12, and Minnie, nine with Brendyn as they all enjoyed time at London's Chiltern Firehouse.
Rachel wrote: "A beautiful blended Christmas with our babas. Hope you had a gorgeous day with your loved ones xxx."
She posted a series of snaps, some of which featured the ice skater as he joined them on their fun.
As the pair both met on the ITV show, they continued to maintain contact with one another throughout the year after the show ended and built up a ‘great friendship’.
A source went on to tell The Sun: "Rachel had a really great friendship and partnership with Brendyn and it keeps developing. They’re really smitten and looking forward to the future. She wasn’t expecting to find love again at this stage in her life but she’s feeling positive about what’s to come and hopeful about a new start."
Regarding her split from her ex-husband, Rachel hinted at a book-deal which would feature a tell-all memoir with all the details, just weeks after her former S Club bandmate Hannah Spearritt revealed her own new book after claiming to have been forced out of the Good Times Reunion Tour.
So, if you’re hoping to get some juicy gossip, 2024 if your year.
Rachel will be giving us her side of the story as the book is set to hit the shelves.
On Instagram, the singer wrote: "Hi everyone, I am SO excited to finally announce that behind the scenes, I've been working on a brand new, very personal project…
“I've written my first-ever book! FINDING MY VOICE: A Story of Strength, Self-Belief and S Club 7 will publish on the 25th April next year.
“There's so much I haven't had the confidence to share before now. I can't wait to let you in and share my story with you all."
