The romance of Alex McKinnon and his 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 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 fell over her shoulders and her natural makeup emphasized her fresh and radiant complexion.
In March, the athlete made his relationship with the glamorous social worker, who is ten years younger than him, public.
The former Newcastle Knights player and his fellow student from the University of Newcastle both shared a picture of themselves hugging each other on their Instagram pages.
Alex posted the picture of the two of them dressed in pink at Lily’s 22nd birthday party, just hours before the opening game of the NRL season began in Las Vegas.

The 32-year-old former NRL player with quadriplegia took to Instagram on Monday to show Lily playing with two of his three girls. Alex, who has three children Harriet, Audrey and Violet with ex-wife Teigan Power, shared a picture of Lily with the girls on a boat.
Moments later, Lily featured Alex on her own Instagram page, sharing the same photo with a heart emoji.
Lily is studying for a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work at the University of Newcastle.
Alex is now studying psychology there and works as an analyst for Fox Sports.
The athlete went public with the glamorous young social worker in March
Lily, who works as a family liaison worker at Life Without Barriers, recently shared that she will soon be training to become a social worker.
“Working with a small, dedicated team, I have developed an eight-session program tailored to the specific needs of ‘parents of first-time juvenile offenders in the context of domestic violence,'” she recently posted on her LinkedIn page.
McKinnon’s romance comes after he split from ex-wife Teigan Power in January 2022, following five years of marriage, three children and his own horrific football accident on the pitch that left him a quadriplegic.
When they separated, both parties confirmed that the separation was amicable and that they would continue to co-parent their children, twins Audrey and Violet, and their eldest daughter Harriet.
