The former 'The Only Way is Essex' star - who recently quit the ITVBe show - has struck up a relationship with Daniel Spiller - a former Millwall footballer - just months after she split from her on/off boyfriend James Lock after their romance went toxic in the summer.

A source told The Sun Online: "Danielle is really keen on Daniel. He's a real catch and they get on really well.

"Leaving 'TOWIE' was hard but she wants to focus on moving on with her life and she wants Daniel to be a part of that. Now she won't have to see James as much and he won't know everything that's going on in her life - it feels really refreshing for her."

Danielle - who had to watch her relationship with James play out on television for two years - is determined to keep her new romance away from the spotlight for the time being while she and Daniel, who was the victim of a suspected arson attack earlier this year, get to know one another, enjoy each other's company and see where it goes.

The pair have already been on a string of low-key dates over the past few weeks but have done everything they can to make sure they're not pictured together.

However, the news that the 28-year-old beauty has moved on won't sit well with James as he recently admitted that he'd love nothing more than to get back with Danielle.

He said: "As much as I'd love to be with Danielle in an ideal world, I can't be with her. I'd never say never but at the minute it's not happening."
