Michael Clarke’s new girlfriend Arabella Sherborne has shared a glimpse into their lavish Sri Lanka holiday, just days after going official on Instagram with the athlete.
The 43-year-old cricketer and the 32-year-old property guru went public with their romance on social media earlier this week, when Arabella tagged Michael in photos from their big trip.
Arabella has accompanied Michael to Sri Lanka for his latest cricket trip, and the couple have gone from strength to strength since news of their romance broke last month.
Now Arabella has given her fans a glimpse into their romantic getaway as she took to Instagram on Saturday to share a series of snaps from their stay in Colombo.
Michael also indicated that things were getting serious between the two when he left a telling comment on her post, a rare public display of affection.
“We’re not leaving,” he enthused about their romantic holiday in the Sri Lankan capital.
In the post, Arabella shared some gorgeous photos of herself on vacation, sightseeing, visiting fancy restaurants and hitting the gym.
In one photo, Arabella can be seen showing off her toned figure in a black sports bra, leggings and running shoes as she takes a selfie in the mirror while sitting on the gym floor.

“She’s had a few boyfriends but is really ready to settle down. She and Michael are a good match, very cute together. She could be the next Mrs Clarke,” they claimed.
News of their new romance came 18 months after Michael publicly split from ex-girlfriend Jade Yarbrough.
Michael and Jade had a public row in a Noosa park in January 2023 when she accused the former cricketer of sleeping with his ex-girlfriend Pip Edwards.
In the video, which was filmed by an onlooker, Jade accused the former Test captain of cheating on her with his former flame Pip in December 2022.
The dramatic footage showed Michael shirtless being verbally abused and punched by his girlfriend as he dined at a beachside restaurant in Noosa. A remorseful Michael later took full responsibility for what happened.

“I am truly sorry that I have put people I hold in the highest regard in this position. My actions in the lead up to this clash were utterly shameful and regrettable,” he told The Daily Telegraph.
“I am devastated that my actions have put women of class and integrity, and my friends, in this situation.”
Despite the feud, “the exes remain on friendly terms,” a spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia at the time.
Michael was previously married to Kyly Clarke and they have an eight-year-old daughter, Kelsey Lee. Michael and Kyly split in 2019 after seven years of marriage.
