Amy Winehouse is dating the son of legendary boxer and grilling machine inventor George Foreman.

The ‘Rehab’ singer is smitten with George III – nicknamed ‘Monk’ - after the pair enjoyed a string of secret dates.

 

A source said: “Amy told us that shes dating George Foremans son, she said he is absolutely gorgeous.

 

“Amy also laughed and revealed hes a very big man. She seemed genuinely excited about him.”

 

The 60-year-old former world champion has five sons – all named George – and it is 26-year-old George III who Amy, also 26, is believed to be dating.

 

George III appeared in reality TV show ‘Family Foreman’ in 2008 and is a fitness fanatic.

 

Amy – who has battled drug and alcohol abuse - is hoping her new love will help her lead a healthier lifestyle.

 

The source added: “She gushed about him for ages, like a lovesick teenager. She says he really looks after his body and is into sport, fitness and healthy living.”

 

The beehived star made her return to the UK stage by appearing on TV talent show 'Strictly Come Dancing' last weekend - performing backing vocals for her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield, who is launching a pop career.
