Bridget's new love
It comes after The Sun revealed that Renee will date a toyboy 28 years younger in the next Bridget Jones movie.

Insiders confirmed One Day star Leo, 27, will play Bridget’s love interest in the film, which is about to start filming.

A source said: “Bridget is going to be a real cougar in the new film and she’ll be seen starting a relationship with a much younger character played by Leo.
“He was thrilled about landing the part and will have a major role as her love interest in Mad About The Boy.
Bridget Jones's greatest moments
“Bridget is a single mum trying to navigate a new world of social media and dating apps after Mark’s death, so she’s definitely going to end up in a pickle.
“Hugh Grant is back as Daniel Cleaver, so there will be a love triangle between Bridget’s older flame and this much younger new man.”
In Helen Fielding’s 1996 novel Bridget Jones’s Diary, the title character lists the type of boyfriend she does not want — but doesn’t mention anything about age.
The film version, released in 2001, made more than £222million at the box office.
Its sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason, came three years later, with 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby revealing the character was pregnant.
The latest film is also based on a book, published in 2013.
