Denise Van Outen ex Eddie Boxshall has taken a swipe at the TV star, as he went public with his new girlfriend.

The couple announced that they had split after seven years after Eddie sent texts of a sexual nature behind Denise's back, which ultimately ended their relationship.

Eddie did say that he was "deeply sorry" and "ashamed" about the messages.

However, it now appears that he is moving on as he has shared a snap of his new girlfriend, who is a personal trainer from Essex.

People have been quick to notice that his new partner looks a lot like the actress, but Eddie had a quick response to those comments.

Alongside the loved-up picture, Eddie wrote: "Bank holiday" followed by several hashtags: "#shhhthereyougo #idontdohating #thankstothenicepeople #happy."

One of his followers commented: "Anyone going to state the obvious?"

Eddie was quick to respond to the comment with a dig as he said: "Yeah, I'm happier than I've ever been… Well spotted."

Forty nine year old Denise has also moved on, and she is currently seeing property developer Jimmy Barba.

Denise spoke out about the break up in her new autobiography A Bit Of Me: From Basildon To Broadway And Back, where she revealed what set off her "alarm bells."

The Celebrity Gogglebox star wrote: "Among photos was a screenshot…of a woman’s breasts – and they definitely weren’t mine!

"Also, there was a flirty text exchange between Eddie and this woman, which, of course, set off alarm bells."

In May last year, Denise spoke to OK! about opening up about her experiences in the book, and how it has helped her feel better.

She told us: "It was an opportunity to be very open about certain things, and it’s cathartic when you do something like that.

"Some of it is difficult to talk about, but I think that after writing it and now it’s out there, I feel better."

Later that year,a source told OK! that she was "smitten" with her new man.

The source confirmed: "Denise is head over heels for Jimmy – he feels like a breath of fresh air and is a real man after all of Eddie's drama.

"He makes her laugh, they're having so much fun together after meeting online. It's not been long, but she's smitten which is why she went on red carpet official with him."

Since then, they have gone from strength to strength and have recently celebrated their first anniversary together.
