Alex McKinnon’s romance with girlfriend Lily Malone has taken a dramatic next step.
The 32-year-old former NRL player with quadriplegia took to Instagram on Monday to show Lily spending time with two of his three children.
Alex, who has daughters Harriet, Audrey and Violet with his ex-wife Teigan Power, shared a photo of Lily with the girls on a boat.
Lily and her two daughters looked radiant and happy, much to the delight of Alex’s fans and followers.
In the photo, Lily’s long, dark hair falls past her shoulders and her natural makeup accentuates her fresh, radiant complexion.
The athlete spoke openly to the attractive young social worker, who is ten years his junior, in March.
The former Newcastle Knights player and fellow Newcastle University student both shared a photo of themselves wrapping their arms around each other on their Instagram pages at the time.
Alex posted a photo of the two of them dressed in pink at Lily’s 22nd birthday party, just hours before the NRL season opener kicked off in Las Vegas.

Lily, who works as a family liaison at Life Without Barriers, recently shared that she will soon become a licensed social worker.
“Working with a small, dedicated team, I developed an eight-session program specifically tailored to the unique needs of parents of first-time juvenile offenders in a domestic violence context,” she recently posted on her LinkedIn page.
McKinnon’s romance came after he split from ex-wife Teigan Power in January 2022, following five years of marriage, three children and his own horrific football accident that left him quadriplegic.
At the time of their split, both parties confirmed that the divorce was amicable and that they were still committed to co-parenting their children, twins Audrey and Violet and eldest daughter Harriet.
