Dressed down in black sportswear and a raincoat, Joanne appeared to be in relaxed spirits as she walked alongside her beau and their pet pooch. Although not much is known about the star's new romance, it seems this is her first relationship since her split from her ex-husband, James Cannon.

In spite of her marriage breakdown, the 43-year-old previously revealed that she is "grateful" for what she has.
Speaking to Red Magazine, she candidly said: "I didn't think I'd be divorced, I didn't think we'd be going through a pandemic, I didn't think my life would be in flux in the way it was. But I'm OK with that."

"I've taken that over now, so I'm running my own company," she explained.

Reflecting on the importance of friends and family, Joanne went on to say: "I'm so grateful for my friends and family, for my health and to have been working so much during this past year. You realise, when it comes down to it, how many positives you have in your life."
