Since her shock split from her photographer husband Lee Henderson, KIIS FM star Jackie O has been linked to a string of men, including co-star Beau Ryan.

But last week, it seemed the blonde beauty, 45, has turned her attention to another footy sensation, Sam Burgess!

The duo had tongues wagging when Sam, 31, openly flirted with the mother-of-one, during a radio segment in which they discussed how well endowed the recently single sport star is.

A blushing Jackie was caught giggling by the father-of-two, who demanded Jackie reveal why she was laughing during the hot under-the-collar segment.

Back in 2018, Jackie insisted she and her ex would be remaining close for the sake of their daughter Kitty, 9.

“After 18 years together, we have made the decision to separate. We do so amicably, sharing many incredible memories and remaining best friends,” Jackie told The Daily Telegraph at the time.

“Our focus for this next chapter is of course our wonderful daughter and continuing to provide her love and happiness, together,” she added.

Following her statement, the The Masked Singer judge went live on air on The Kyle & Jackie O Show with her co-host Kyle Sandilands to further explain the shock announcement.

“It was in the Telegraph this morning, and something we haven’t properly addressed yet on the show, but obviously Lee and I, we’ve decided to separate, which you know already, Kyle,” she said.

“And it’s not a decision we took lightly at all. Lee and I have been so lucky that our separation has been extremely amicable — I know everyone says that, but we actually have remained really good friends throughout this,” she continued.

She added: “We talk every day on the phone, we all still hang out as a family, so we’re lucky in that respect. But it’s not something that happened overnight for us, it’s been a long time.

“We’ve been separated for quite some time now. We’re just lucky, I guess, that we were able to do it in private.”
