Richie Myler has shared a new snap of himself with new partner, Stephanie Thirkill, following his high-profile split from Countryfile star, Helen Skelton.
The pair looked beaming as they posed for the camera as they attended the Man of Steel Awards together. Stephanie wore a burgundy dress styled with nude Valentino shoes and a Chanel bag to match. Richie looked dapper in a black tuxedo paired with a dickie bow.
Richie captioned the post: "Man of steel awards" followed by a heart emoji, Stephanie also shared the same snap to her profile, which Richie re-shared on his story. Much like his other posts with his new partner, Richie has turned the comments off on his post.

The pair's relationship seems to be going from strength to strength as Richie also shared a series of clips of the two of them enjoying a holiday to Cornwall recently.
However, it was suggested that the rugby player was making a savage dig at his former partner as he captioned the post: "Cornwall, was worth a 32 year wait." Helen was reportedly left "devastated" over the "insensitive" post.
TV presenter Skelton confirmed in April that her Leeds Rhinos husband had left the family home, with reports emerging soon after that he had started a relationship with Thirkill, the daughter of the rugby league club's president, Andrew Thirkill.
Stephanie Thirkill, 32 has a degree in Retail Marketing Management from Leeds Metropolitan University and has worked in her father's firm Age Partnership Group Limited, a retirement specialist based in Leeds. Her dad is one of Leeds' wealthiest business owners with an estimated net worth of around £175 million.
Myler, who has three children with Skelton, has recently returned to action with the Rhinos following a long-term injury.
At the time of the split, 38-year-old Skelton said: "Very sad to say that Richie and I are no longer a couple. He has left the family home. We will be doing our best to co parent our small children." She ended the post with two broken heart emojis.
Since the split, Helen has been throwing herself into work as she adjusts to life as a busy working single mum to Ernie, seven, Louis, five, and seven-month-old Elsie Kate. And she has recently been announced as taking part in this years Strictly Come Dancing.
And, although her pals are keen for her to find love again, Helen is not quite ready. The source explained: "She's focusing on the kids and work. She's not ready to get back out there on the dating scene but her friends would like her to meet someone."
