Jenny McCarthy brushes off new romance rumours post split

Washington: Jenny McCarthy has dismissed reports that she has found a new boyfriend, just weeks after splitting from NFL star Brian Urlacher. The Model-turned-actress ended her four-month romance with Chicago Bears linebacker Urlacher in August. But an article on Eonline.com on Thursday suggested that she had bounced back from her heartache by embarking on a new relationship with celebrity jeweller Pascal Mouawad. McCarthy has brushed off the claims via her Twitter account, insisting that the rumour is not true and she’s “still single and happy about it,” a website has reported. The ‘Two and a Half Men’ star also revealed to fans that she is currently too ill to date - because her extensive promotional tour for her new autobiography, ‘Bad Habits: Confessions of a Recovering Catholic,’ has left her with a throat infection. “I’m in bed with strep throat. Was a long book tour and finally caught up with me. Boo,” she tweeted. ANI
