Lewis Burton has been pictured with his rumoured new love interest, just days after the inquest into Caroline Flack’s death.

Caroline took her own life in February after being charged with assaulting Lewis – her then-boyfriend – with a lamp.

This is something she denied.

Lewis, 28, reportedly spent the night before Caroline’s inquest with Lottie to celebrate her 22nd birthday.

And, on Friday (August 7), the pair were spotted enjoying a stroll in the sunshine while sipping on juices.

Lottie and Lewis have been there for each other as a shoulder to cry on.

It’s thought the pair have bonded over the grief of their loved ones.

Lottie lost her mother, Johannah, to cancer in December 2016.

Her sister Félicité died of an accidental drug overdose in March 2019.

It’s thought Lewis and Lottie started getting close at a party held by Caroline’s close friend Lou Teasdale to mark the three-month anniversary of her death in May.
