Jimmy Bartel and his new love Milly Shepperd have been seen out and about together in Melbourne.

The former AFL star debuted his new romance with the executive assistant last week.

On his birthday at the weekend Bartel posted a picture with his two sons, Aston and Henley, saying he’s “never been happier”.

He and ex-wife Nadia Bartel separated two years ago, with Cats legend Jimmy, 38, starting a new relationship with socialite Lauren Mand.

Now he’s with Shepperd — full name is Amelia — who is known around the social scene in Melbourne and spent several years in Brisbane where, according to LinkedIn, she was the EA to the managing director and chief operations officer of Queensland Rugby League.

The new couple was first spotted two weeks ago walking Bartel’s dog around Albert Park Lake.

It’s unclear how long they have been dating.
