It’s all about bubbles for curfew lovers in these weird Covid times, but we hear AFL champion Jimmy Bartel’s has well and truly popped.

Victorians are allowed to have a nominated lover in their bubble, but there appears to be no more intimate partnering (it’s the new Covid-speak) going on between Bartel and Lauren Mand.

Mand was at the centre of the Brownlow medallist’s explosive break-up with the mother of his two children, Nadia Bartel.

It’s almost two years to the day since the most talked about AFL split to rock Melbourne’s influencing world was revealed, where the Bartel’s were considered royalty alongside Queen-B – Bec and Chris Judd.

The Bartels divorce is said to have been finalised just this week.

The modern day telltale signs of a celebrity split by not posting gushing photos of each other on the ‘Gram has been lurking around for some time. But many in the know thought that could have just been down to some orders handed down about social media usage.

The last time Mand featured on Bartel’s timeline was over a year ago, while her own socials have undergone a transformation.

At the height of the highly publicised scandal, the Brighton gal was flooding her timelines with PDA pictures of herself cuddled up to the former Geelong great and Channel 7 commentator.

Those close to Bartel say the Brownlow medallist and the girl he visited in the UK while there to watch Wimbledon in 2019 parted ways some time ago.

Meanwhile, Nadia has seemingly gone from strength to strength. Her business, fashion and beauty career is soaring, along with her followers.
