Rachel’s love for Arsenal’s Gavin

Rachel Stevens has never looked sexier than she does soaking up the sun on a Spanish beach… and with good reason. The former S Club 7 singer is said to be radiant with happiness after finding love with a new man – a multi-millionaire who simply adores her.

Rachel, who called off her engagement to Holby City star Jeremy Edwards in January, has recently shared a string of secret dinner dates with wealthy Gavin Dein, 27, son of Arsenal boss David.

The pair only parted briefly so Rachel could enjoy a sunshine break in Marbella, where she is attending a friend’s wedding. A pal said last night: “I haven’t seen her look so happy in a long time. It’s early days, but she and Gavin can’t get enough of each other.”

“He is everything she looks for in a man – intelligent, good-looking and highly successful in his own right. He is treating her like a princess and they are like a pair of love-struck teenagers.”

Gavin is chief executive officer of Reward, the largest sports loyalty company in Europe. His father David, 58, is FA and Arsenal vice chairman. He’s also a City commodity broker and worth an estimated £36 million.

Before falling for Gavin, Rachel was briefly linked to wealthy businessman Simon Brodin. He dumped her and then dated a 39-year-old millionairess. Since splitting from Rachel in January Jeremy has been linked to dancer Beverley Gilmour.
