Neighbours star Jodi Gordon dotes on her adorable daughter Aleeia as they spend time together

She left long-running soap Neighbours earlier this year to return home to Sydney.

And on Thursday, Jodi Gordon couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she spent time with her adorable daughter Aleeia, who she shares with ex-husband, retired NRL star Braith Anasta, 38. 

The actress, 35, shared a series of photos alongside her six-year-old daughter while soaking up the sun at a park in Sydney.

Jodi wore a casual white jumper and black hat as she posed and smiled with Aleeia.

In one picture, the Neighbours star looked over and admired her daughter, who smiled for the camera.

‘My little Ride or Die,’ she captioned the snaps. 

Jodi’s post comes days after she stepped out with her rumoured new man, named Cedric, during a family date night on Friday.

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia on Monday, a source close to the couple revealed that Jodi is ‘happier than ever’ after meeting the Sydney businessman.

‘She’s head over heels. They’ve been dating for a few months now, but things are still very early stages into their relationship,’ they said.

During their public outing, the smitten couple appeared cosy, as Jodi held onto her adorable daughter’s arm while her new man, Cedric, walked behind the pair. 

Jodi announced in January that she was leaving her role as Elly Conway, after three years on the soap. 

The decision saw her move back to Sydney from Melbourne, where Neighbours is filmed, to spend more time with Aleeia.

Braith and Jodi announced their split at the end of 2015, stating that they would ‘remain best of friends’ for the sake of their daughter.
