HAYLEY Palmer has teased her secret boyfriend after being left ‘heartbroken’ from her split with Mark Labbett.
It was just last week that Hayley, 42, revealed she was dating a new man, ensuring to keep his identity a secret for now.
The presenter told fans: “There is a certain someone… but I’m not revealing all!” when asked about her love life in an Instagram Q&A.
She’s now shared a snap, seemingly from one of their dates, focusing the attention on two gold straws in a glass of Coca-Cola.
But, it looked like Hayley was dining opposite a man wearing a light blue shirt.
The new love comes after Hayley opened up on the relationship, revealing Mark brutally dumped her in a three-minute phone call.
Hayley and Mark dated for a year and seemed loved-up before their shocking split just days after their one-year anniversary in May.
The 6ft 7in quizzer, nicknamed The Beast, said he was ending their year-long romance because he did not want to divorce his ex Katie.
Hayley admitted she “didn’t know what happened” as they had just celebrated their first anniversary on May 16. with a trip to the beach in Southsea, Hants.
They spent time on a bench which was the same place they shared their first date, followed by a meal at Beefeater.
So Hayley had the wind taken out of her when he called things off in a brutal phone call just days later.
Hayley told us: “The call started off as a normal conversation.
“He was spending time with his son and we’d had a conversation about me joining them at a water park.
“Then he said, ‘I don’t know how to tell you this, but you were right. I don’t want to divorce my ex-wife’.
“The shock of the way he said it was so brutally cold and not the Mark I know.
“I thought he was a gentle giant, so this was the complete opposite.
“He was as cold as ice.”
Later at the National Reality TV Awards, Hayley opened up on the toll the split had taken on her and how she was looking forward to the future.
They had even appeared on ITV’s Loose Women days earlier and spoken about their relationship — and their future together.
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Hayley said: “I think you go through stages of a break-up and it was…
“It was really hard to begin with and I couldn’t even get out of bed.”
Choking back tears, she continued: “But then I went through a stage when I was okay, then I went through a stage where I was bursting into tears the other week but now I’m like, ‘Hayley, let’s go, come on you bad b***h’.
