Padma Lakshmi flashes ring on her wedding finger... after rekindling romance with baby daddy Adam Dell

They rekindled their love in 2017, following a bitter custody battle over their daughter Krishna Thea Lakshmi-Dell, nine. 

And things seem to be going from strength to strength for Padma Lakshmi and Adam Dell, with the TV host seen with a large ring on 'that' finger. 

The 48-year-old beauty walked hand-in-hand with her man while out in New York City while flashing her new ring.

Padma kept things chic in a white frilly button-up top underneath a black jacket. 

She teamed the look with a pair of boot-cut denim jeans that were frayed at the ankle. 

The TV host opted for comfort, wearing some flat sneakers and accessorizing with a cross-body bag.

Padma styled her brunette tresses out into loose waves and wore a natural amount of makeup. 

Adam also kept things casual in a white shirt and pair of trousers as they walked around SoHo.  

But things haven't always been smooth sailing for Padma and Adam, who welcomed their daughter Krishna Thea into the world in February 2010.  

The Top Chef host and the capitalist dated briefly on-and-off in 2009 before welcoming their bundle of joy the following year. 

After being told she'd be unable to conceive naturally due to her endometriosis, she revealed in 2016 she was not only shocked she was pregnant, but didn't know who the father was at first.

Padma was dating both Adam - the brother of Dell computer founder, Michael, as well as the late IMG CEO and billionaire Teddy Forstmann, who died in 2011, age 71. 

Teddy was there through Padma's entire pregnancy, even though a paternity test showed he was not the father - even leaving a large undisclosed sum to Krishna before he died.  

It wasn't until after Teddy's death that Adam's name was added to Krishna's birth certificate - following a bitter custody battle between the two parents in the Manhattan Supreme Court, during which time Adam claimed his former partner tried to prevent him from seeing their little girl.

Padma and Adam rekindled their love in 2017.

Whenever anyone asks me who Krishna looks like, I always say she looks like “her,” began the author.  

'It's easy to let our vanity lead us in our opinions about our children sometimes. And, of course, the truth is that when anyone says that Krishna's mannerisms or her bone structure reminds them of me, it feels like a huge compliment.'

'But what I want for Krishna most is to take the best of everything that all the people who love her have to offer.' ⁣

'I look forward every day to seeing that person develop before my eyes. It is the greatest joy of my life and the most compelling thing to behold. ⁣Happy Mother's Day!'

Sharing her truth: 'It's easy to let our vanity lead us in our opinions about our children sometimes. And, of course, the truth is that when anyone says that Krishna's mannerisms or her bone structure reminds them of me, it feels like a huge compliment'
