A popular Melbourne influencer has debuted her new romance at Glamour on the Grid on Wednesday night – just six months after announcing her split from a famous Australian tennis star.

Hannah Dal Sasso attended the annual party, which takes place on the eve of the Formula One Grand Prix 2025, with her new man Rupert McLean.

Dal Sasso began dating the son of former Real Housewives of Melbourne star Susie McLean recently, with the pair snapped multiple times at the star-studded party held at Grand Prix Pit Lane, an area usually reserved for Formula One team members.

“We me through our friends Izzy Armitage and her sister Riley and we’re very happy, he’s amazing.”

Dal Sasso was previously in an 18-month relationship with tennis champ, Thanasi Kokkinakis, which ended in September last year.

She wore a navy blue bodice gown adorned with a statement bow and a large skirt to the party. Her hair was also different, having changed to brunette from her signature blonde.

“You look gorgeous as always,” said one more.

AFLW star Moana Hope was spotted at the event just a month after she confirmed her split from former Miss Universe Australia, Maria Thattil.

Thattil went all out, wearing a custom Cappellazzo Couture black gown with daring cut outs.

“Avante garde, modern edgy Hollywood glamour. Sculpturally crafted for the grid,” she captioned a video of herself in the jaw-dropping dress.

Thattil, who attended as a guest of Shark Beauty, finished her look with a sleek hair style.
