Last month Claudia made headlines after revealing her steamy new romance with Dave.

Photos taken in late November showed the couple on a romantic surf date on Bondi Beach – a similar location where Dave previously debuted his relationship with his ex-chiropractor Shannon Egan.

Claudia's last known romance was with her ex-partner Jeremy Sparks, who she dated for 22 years before splitting in 2017.

Dave, who was a drummer in an indie rock band when he met the About a Boy star, confirmed his split from Golden Globe winner Toni in December 2022 while passionately kissing at Sydney's Manly Beach Egan was pictured.

Chron Australia contacted Toni's management about the photos and hours later announced in a joint statement on their newly reactivated Instagram account that the couple had split.

“It is with grace and gratitude that we announce our divorce,” the couple wrote.

“We are united in our decision and part ways with continued respect and care for one another.”

“Our children are of utmost importance to us and we will continue to thrive as a family, albeit in a different form.” We are grateful for the space and love you allow us as we evolve and peacefully through this transition go. Thank you.'

The pair met at the release of Dave's band's debut album Metal Detector in Sydney in 2002, and their second encounter took place just days later at a house party.

Less than a year after they met, in January 2003, they married with Buddhist rituals at their property in Berry on the New South Wales south coast.
