The post comes just hours after thrice-married Katie, 42, enjoyed a very public display of affection with Carl, who at 31 is 11-years her junior.
The pair shared a passionate kiss shortly after leaving his Essex home, before he helped the reality TV personality into his bright red £250,000 Lamborghini Diablo.
Katie has been secretly seeing her new boyfriend in lockdown but friends close to the couple say they’re finally ready to go public with their relationship.

Car salesman Carl described himself as ‘confident, charming and outrageous’ on Love Island, as well as admitting that his celebrity crush is former glamour model Jodie Marsh, Katie’s old nemesis.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Katie is absolutely smitten with Carl.
‘He’s been the one to put a smile back on her face after her split from Kris, which has taken her a long time to get over.

‘There has been a lot of drama and upset in Katie’s life the last year but she’s so happy to have met Carl and they both laugh over the fact he was once on Love Island.’
Carl boasted about owning over 30 cars and training in the gym five times a week to secure his spot on the ITV2 dating show.
But he failed to impress the ladies of the 2016 series, which included Olivia Buckland and winner Cara de la Hoyde, and his time on the programme was short-lived.

When describing the type of woman he’s attracted to, he said: ‘I want a girl that’s able to laugh at herself but equally someone that acts like a girl. I don’t want a best mate.
‘A girl that makes the best of herself and is classy. And if she could look like Jodie Marsh that would be amazing.’
Katie is a mum to Harvey, 18, from her past relationship with Dwight Yorke, Junior, 15, and Princess, 13, who she shares Peter Andre, and Jett, six, and Bunny, five, following her marriage to Kieran Hayler.
