Alex McKinnon’s ex-wife Teigan Power has made a telling comment about her new boyfriend Jake Nelson.
Teigan has hinted that things are getting serious between her and Jake, just months after they first went official with their romance back in December.
She took to Instagram on Monday to share a gushing tribute to her boyfriend alongside a sweet snap of them cuddled up to each other.
In the picture, Teigan looked happier than ever as she flashed a huge smile while sitting outside wrapped up in a blanket with Jake, who put his arms around her.
In an accompanying caption, Teigan made a telling comment about their relationship as she teased that they are only going from strength-to-strength.
Teigan – who shares daughter Harriet, five, and twins Audrey and Violent, two, with her ex Alex – gushed: ‘Truly obsessed. Thank you for loving the girls and I.’
Jake replied in the comments: ‘Love you!’ with Teigan sharing the same words back in a sweet exchange.
Teigan first went Instagram official with Jake in December, posting pictures of them packing on the PDA at the Hunter Valley Gardens Christmas Lights Spectacular.

The couple had visited the festive event with Teigan’s three daughters, in a sign things had already become serious between the loved-up pair.
Teigan’s new romance came almost two years after her split from her childhood sweetheart, former NRL star Alex, 32, in January 2022.
Their separation was made public three months after they went their separate ways, with the couple confirming the split was amicable at the time.
In April last year, Alex – who was left paralysed from a spinal injury sustained in a devastating tackle in 2014 – said he and Teigan still maintain a very close friendship.
‘Being a parent is such an important job and having a strong relationship with their mum is just as important,’ he shared.
‘We are still good friends, we both realise we are role models for the kids and we need to show them that being supportive of each other is the only way to be.’

Alex proposed to his high school sweetheart from his hospital bed just days after his promising NRL career was cut short in March 2014, when he suffered a devastating spinal cord injury at the age of 22.
He suffered fractures to his C4 and C5 vertebrae after a dangerous tackle close to half-time of a Round 3 clash against the Melbourne Storm and was left a quadriplegic.
Alex and Teigan tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in the NSW Hunter Valley in October 2017.
The couple were together for 12 years and married for five before they decided to quietly end their relationship.
Alex has since found love again with social worker Lily Malone, 22, with the pair going public with their romance in March of this year.
Lily is studying a bachelor’s degree in social work at University of Newcastle, where Alex is studying psychology alongside working for Fox Sports as an analyst.
