Louise Redknapp is reportedly back on the dating scene and “opened herself up to the prospect of finding a new man” following the collapse of her marriage to ex-footballer Jamie.
The 47-year-old singer was wed to Jamie, 49, for almost 20 years but the couple split in 2017, with Jamie since marrying Swedish model Frida Andersson in October last year.
The couple welcomed their first child together, son Raphael Anders Redknapp in November, and also have six children between them from their former marriages.

A source close to the Eternal star told Closer magazine: “Louise has opened herself up to the prospect of finding a new man and has been enjoying some set-ups through friends.”
They added: “She feels better than ever but she knows that she doesn’t need a man to be happy.”
Louise and Jamie were married for almost two decades, but following her stint on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017 they decided to end their relationship.

In 2020, Jamie and Frida went public with their romance and announced they were expecting a child together 10 months later, marrying shortly before the arrival of Raphael.
Taking to Instagram in December 2021, Louise explained she was in a “positive headspace”, writing: “I try not to read or respond to these things but sometimes they are unavoidable,” adding: “I’d really love to clarify that ‘Louise’ is not in despair or anything like it!!
“I have my two gorgeous boys that I adore more than anything in the world, the best family around me and I’m having the time of my life with my career and with the most wonderful friends that a girl could hope for.

“I’d like to make it clear that I’m in the most positive of headspace and loving my life. Here’s to all the ladies out there that are in control of their lives and living their very best lives!”
Speaking about her life last year, Louise said her sons were “desperate” for their mum to find a new love interest, but the singer told Fabulous magazine: “On my days off, going out and having a social life is not my priority.
“It sounds basic, but I’ve got two things that are really important to me right now: my kids, because I want to be a solid part of their life, and my work.”
