Paul Hollywood's new girlfriend Summer Moneys-Fullam has praised the Great British Bake Off star for turning her 'from a girl to a woman' in a gushing Instagram post.

The barmaid, 22, is currently enjoying a romantic break with Paul, 52, in Mauritius but wrote about her 'amazing boyfriend' in a besotted social note to mark the end of 2017.

Summer has since deleted her Instagram account, but didn't hold back in her praise of the TV star in the newly unearthed post.

Loved up? According to sources the 52-year-old TV favourite 'looked extremely happy' with his new love - who is 30 years his junior - as they stayed at the £1,000 a night tropical resort

Paying tribute to 2017, Summer wrote: 'You have been amazing. You have been journey. You have been experience. You have taught me. You have shown me. You have made me.'

She continued by thanking the people in her life including Paul, writing: 'I can only thank the people that are close to me. Including my amazing boyfriend. You have turned me from a girl to a woman, and to a house woman. I love you so much!'

'This post is not for likes but the love of my life. I am truly a lucky girl and have the best things and people and animals around me, 2018.'

Great British Bake Off star Paul has reportedly whisked his girlfriend away for a luxurious break in Mauritius.

According to The Sun On Sunday, the 52-year-old TV favourite 'looked extremely happy' with his alleged new love - who is 30 years his junior - as they stayed at the £1,000 a night tropical resort.

Before they soaked up the sun, the pair reportedly agreed to meet in America first, with neither party telling friends who they were meeting up with.

Sources told the tabloid that Paul and Summer spent ten days together on their romantic beach trip, but were careful to avoid any attention from the public.

Despite the considerable age gap between the two, Paul was reportedly getting on extremely well with Summer, with sources adding they could've been mistaken for a couple on their honeymoon.

A source told the publication: 'Despite looking more like father and daughter, when they did stroll around together they left people in no doubt that they were a couple.

'Summer has clearly put a smile on his face after a difficult time in his personal life.'

Making sure their blossoming romance didn't catch the attention of other holiday-makers, the couple spent most of their time in their secluded villa.

'They did not really go into the public areas or pools and seemed to just want some quiet time.'

MailOnline have contacted Paul and Summer's representatives for comment.

The new couple were allegedly first spotted in November, after Paul was spotted on a secret date with the Kent barmaid.

The pair met last year at Paul's local pub where he organised ex-wife Alexandra's birthday party and have struck up a close bond despite the 29-year age gap, sources claimed to The Sun.

'Paul and Summer have struck up a close friendship — the age gap between them doesn't seem to be a problem,' an insider claimed.

Paul and Alexandra, who have a 16-year-old son, announced they were splitting in the same month - but reportedly parted ways earlier that year.

Paul and Alexandra, who is also a chef, married in 1998, and have a teenage son together, Joshua.

They previously separated in 2013 when the TV chef admitted his affair with Marcela Valladolid, his co-star on the US version of Bake Off.

The American spin-off was cancelled after just one series for having poor ratings.

The couple reconciled a few months later and he described the incident as 'the biggest mistake of my life' in an interview with BBC radio.

Speaking at the time, he told the BBC he 'was shocked about the whole thing kicking off the way it did... but I deserved it and I've taken it. It was my punishment.'
