The 47-year-old TV presenter - who has kids Woody, 16, and Nelly, seven, with the world-famous DJ, who is also known as Fatboy Slim - has started dating again following the suicide of her cameraman boyfriend Billy Yates in May and she's now introduced Michael to her ex.

A source said: "It shows things are getting serious. Zoe's family are so important to her.

"For her family to want to spend time with them as a couple is just the icing on the cake after she has found happiness again. She's over the moon they approve.

"But Zoe has remained very close to Norman and he has been a rock to her through everything."

Zoe is thrilled that Michael and Norman have already developed a good relationship.

The insider told The Sun newspaper: "It really means a lot to Zoe to also have his seal of approval and for Michael and Norman to get on."

News of Zoe's burgeoning relationship with Michael was reported earlier this month.

The British TV star - who separated from Norman in 2016, having been married to him since 1999 - spent Christmas Day with her own family, but was still in regular contact with the dad-of-three on December 25.

Of how they both enjoyed the big day, the source explained: "They spent Christmas Day apart as they wanted to spend it with their kids but they kept in touch through the day."
