The Kid Laroi has moved on following his split with pop star Tate McRae.
Laroi, real name Charlton Kenneth Jeffrey Howard, was in Melbourne this week enjoying the tennis at the Australian Open.
He wasn't attending solo, with the Thousand Miles hitmaker spotted getting up close and personal with director and producer Sophie HM.
The Aussie rapper, 22, popped up in a very telling post on the brunette's Instagram story.
The photo, taken from Sophie's perspective, showed the couple sitting in what looked to be a sky-high cable car cabin.
While Sophie's face cannot be seen in the image, her legs, clad in a pair of wide-legged pants, were outstretched for Laroi to latch on to.

With his face hidden under a black baseball cap, Laroi leaned in to give Sophie a kiss on her ankle as he held onto an iced beverage.
The couple were later spotted watching Alex de Minaur take on Carlos Alcaraz on centre court at Melbourne Park on Tuesday.
The pair looked chuffed to be in each other's company as their eyes were glued to the action on the court.
There was some time for some fraternising, though, with Laroi spotted holding her hand at one point.
Laroi called time on his romance with McRae in July last year, after a year of dating.
He appeared to confirm their split when he said the pair were 'on good terms' after fans accused his team of paying for 'slander tweets' against her.
Speaking about the split in December, McRae told Rolling Stone that she felt 'overwhelmed' with the scrutiny.
'It was really scary and overwhelming, I would never talk that way, even about my friends' lives,' McRae said.

'I didn't realise how much it would affect me, the public knowing my private life – because no one knows the full story of anything, ever.
'I also hate people painting a situation that's worse than it is,' she continued.
'But what I've had to realise is that he's going to write songs and I'm going to write songs, and that's our way of expressing ourselves.'
The blonde added, 'That's our art, that's our job. And once it's out there, it's not mine anymore.'
