The “Hart of Dixie” star, 42, shared a photo Wednesday of herself and boyfriend Sennett Devermont embracing each other.
King and Devermont first sparked dating rumors in December 2020 after they were reportedly spotted grabbing takeout together in West Hollywood – seven months after the “Sin City” star was granted a “partial” temporary restraining order against her estranged husband, Kyle Newman.
Devermont, an activist, is best known for creating the Mr. Checkpoint app.
Although the couple went Instagram-official this week, Devermont has made previous appearances on King’s social media. Last November, the actress tagged Devermont in a photo of her son James napping in the activist’s lap.
King’s new pic comes amid her ongoing divorce battle with Newman. The “Barely Lethal” star filed for divorce from the 45-year-old director in May 2020 after nearly 13 years of marriage and two children: sons James, 7, and Leo, 6.

A few months later, Newman filed for sole physical custody of the children, saying he was the primary caretaker and alleging that King had failed an alcohol stipulation test in June and missed the five rescheduled tests that day.
Newman had previously filed documents alleging King was a “chronic drug addict.”
Regarding the drug accusations, her rep told us, “This is another vicious, failed attempt of Kyle to continue his abuse of Jaime and manipulate the court system.”
Newman has moved on romantically as well, welcoming his first child with his girlfriend, Cynthia Nabozny, in February. The couple went public with their relationship last December.
