DENISE Van Outen’s ex Eddie Boxshall has taken a pop at his former fiance as he revealed he's found love with her lookalike.
The commodities trader shared a snap of his new girlfriend – a stunning blonde, who's a personal trainer from Essex.
Ex-Celebrity Googlebox star Eddie – who split from Denise in January 2022 – captioned it: "Bank holiday", with a love heart and the hashtags: "#shhhthereyougo #idontdohating #thankstothenicepeople #happy".
When someone commented: "Anyone going to state the obvious?", Eddie replied: "Yeah, I'm happier than I've ever been… Well spotted."
Denise, 49, was with Eddie since 2014 but they split when she caught him messaging other women.
Eddie admitted swapping up to 20 sex texts behind her back.

“And there were so many positives that came out of it,” she adds.
“I reconnected with a lot of close friends.
"They reached out to me, which is lovely.
