She’s thrown herself back into the dating world since splitting from love-rat husband and father to her three sons, Jamie O’Hara, last August – enjoying romances with nightclub owner George Panayiotou and property developer Tom Jimson.
But after finding happiness with new boyfriend Michael O’Neill last month, Danielle Lloyd faced a backlash from fans online for posting videos of her new man spending time with her young sons, Archie, five, Harry, four, and George, two.
One Twitter user wrote: “This is the 3rd/4th man you’ve introduced to your boys and you’ve been divorced just over a year right?”, while another wrote: “She’s declared love for a new bloke on average every three months!”
Danielle’s mum Jackie was quick to defend her daughter, blasting back on Instagram: “This is the first man the boys have been introduced to! Please don’t judge until you know the true facts. She is a great Mum!”
Sources close to Danielle, who admitted recently, “I have my guard up with men,” say she is determined to ignore the backlash and that she sees a future with Michael.
A source reveals: “Danielle was shocked by the comments. The boys absolutely adore Michael so she doesn’t see the harm in them spending time together – and she always puts her sons first. She feels he’s just a normal guy who wants to take care of her. She thinks she may have found her soulmate.”
