Golfer Rory McIlroy has found new love with a Belfast model – and it's serious

Golf star Rory McIlroy has been secretly dating a Northern Irish model for the past five weeks.

The British Open champion had been rumoured to be romancing Nadia Forde after they were spotted together on a night out.

But it has emerged that Rory, 25, was actually secretly smitten with part time model Sasha Gale after meeting her at a party.

Dating: They have been going out for five weeks | INSTAGRAM

Insiders have said he has been seeing the 23-year-old former air hostess for the past five weeks.

“They’re an item and it’s going well. They are both very happy with each other,” a source told the Sun.

“They met five weeks ago at a party and they’ve been treading carefully in terms of going public.

“Both of them have been keeping it pretty quiet but it couldn’t stay quiet forever.

“She has stayed out of the photos as much as possible, although she was snapped in a selfie with Rory today.

Moved on: Rory with Caroline in happier times

“It’s being kept very quiet and Sasha has really respected that. She’s a very beautiful woman so it wasn’t ever going to stay a secret for too long.”

Her Twitter account shows that she only recently followed Rory on July 1, just shortly into her claimed relationship.

Yesterday they were spotted on a date at the Chelsea Bar in Belfast after his sensational Open win, while his car was being valeted.

It will be the first relationship for Rory since his high-profile split from Danish tennis star Caroline Wozniacki.

On her Instagram page, Sasha says that Georgia Salpa is one of her heroes and an “ultimate woman”, adding: “Could she be any more beautiful?”

Speculation: Rory wasn’t ever going out with Nadia

Sources added that despite speculation, Rory never hooked up with Nadia Forde – and had no plans to.

“They were never an item. He only met her twice really because they shared some of the same friends. The rest was speculation,” a source said.

“However at the same time Rory was seeing Sasha — and their romance was blossoming.”

Earlier today, Rory said that he had learnt a lot since his split from Caroline.
