Gossip outlet Deux Moi first reported that rumours were swirling in Lykke’s native Sweden.

And last week, the same outlet reported a tipster saying Brad and “that Swedish singer” were hanging out at Mother Wolf, a new Roman-style pasta palace which has recently opened up in Hollywood and attracted a number of celebrities.

A source confirmed to The Sun: “It was Lykke, they were dining together.”

Now, The Sun can also reveal 35-year-old Lyyke – who has a son Dion, 6, with her producer ex Jeff Bhasker – lives just a three-minute drive from Brad.

Property records show the singer’s lavish two-bed three-bath home was purchased in 2018 under the Jeff Bhasker Trust for $1.85 million ($A2.6 million).

A separate source told The Sun exclusively: “Brad and Lykke have been able to fly under the radar so easily because they’re neighbours.

“It’s worked out perfectly for Brad, to have someone he likes living so close.”

Brad, 58, has long been a resident of Los Feliz and owns an $8 million ($A11.2 million) home in a gated community, not far from ex Angelina and their six children – Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 15, and Vivienne and Knox, 12.

BRAD’S EX FILES

Before Lykke, the Ocean’s Eleven actor was linked to German model Nicole Poturalski, 29.

He met Nicole at a party in Berlin in 2019 after the premiere of his movie Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood and they are believed to have dated for around a year.

Brad and Angelina split in 2016, and after a nasty fight, they were both declared legally single in April 2019.

The exes’ brutal custody battle remains ongoing.

‘BROKEN’ ANGELINA

While Brad hasn’t touched on their split publicly, Angelina once told the UK’s Guardian the experiences have left her “broken.”

She told the publication her pain spanned five years since her split with Brad, and said: “I mean, in some ways, it’s been the last decade.

“There’s a lot I can’t say.”

She added: “I think at the end of the day, even if you and a few people you love are the only people who know the truth of your life, what you fight for, or what you sacrifice, or what you’ve suffered, you come to be at peace with that, regardless of everything going on around you.”

Since her split from Brad, Angelina has been linked to singer The Weeknd, with the pair rumoured to have been spotted on numerous dates since late last year.
