Michael Clarke and Kyly Boldy ready to make their relationship public

THEY'VE been secretly dating for six months, but now it seems Michael Clarke and Kyly Boldy are finally ready to make their relationship public.

In a bold show of support for the cricket captain, the gorgeous brunette took some friends to watch Clarke play against Sri Lanka at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Friday before he flew to Brisbane for the weekend.

The former Miss Indy spent the afternoon cheering for her new man in a box beside Clarke's assistant, while his father sat behind
her.

Lara Bingle speaks of life after Clarke

A source close to the couple said the two 29-year-old former schoolmates were smitten by each other.

"They've been friends for years but became really close after Michael's break-up with Lara (Bingle)," the friend said.

Clarke had been quick to deny they were dating, and in August tweeted, "Kyly and I are friends - not a boyfriend and girlfriend".
