The Sun revealed Gaz Beadle is dating England‘s top golfer Charley Hull.
Emma confused her followers by posting photos with her friend Tom as they enjoyed drinks together.
One follower asked: “Where’s Gary?” as another said: “Be happy, you deserve it.”
But the mum of two poured cold water over speculation around her love life.
She wrote on Instagram: “Love you @tomharwood1170 – this is not my boyfriend, just to clarify from all the comments.”
Gaz announced his split from wife Emma in October after an eight-year romance.
The couple tied the knot in 2021 and share kids Chester, six, and Primrose, four.
A source said: “Gaz has made no secret of his love of golf and seems to have found his perfect match in Charley. She is at the top of her game and Gaz is enjoying getting on the course with her to pick up new skills.”
They were spotted this month at Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club in Alnwick, Northumberland.
Kettering-born Charley was previously married to martial arts fighter Ozzie Smith.
Charley also shared an action shot from the LPGA Tour in Los Angeles on Friday.
Gaz showed his approval and commented on the post with a flame and heart emoji.
The star told fans he was still friends with Emma as they co-parent their kids.
He said: “We are still friends, there is no bad blood or anything and we have worked out the best way of doing it for the kids, which for me and Emma is always going to be the most important thing.”
