Rachel Hunter's new man

Rachel Hunter is reportedly dating Eddie Irvine.

The New Zealand-born model is said to be getting over her split from ice hockey player Jarret Stoll - who ended their relationship just seven weeks before they were due to marry this year - by spending time with the former Formula One racing driver.

Guests at the Cinema Society's after-party for 'Broken Embraces', which was held at New York's Standard Hotel, saw 40-year-old Rachel "giggling and flirting" with Eddie.

Rachel - who was previously married to singer Rod Stewart - was heartbroken when Jarret walked out on her in June, leaving her to email guests and tell them their August wedding was off.

A source said at the time: "Rachel is absolutely devastated. Everything was in place for their wedding - she had the venue, the designer dress, the guest list.

"She has absolutely no idea why Jarret has done this. It sounds like it could be a classic case of cold feet."
