(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Jim Carrey has been spotted holding hands with a mystery blonde woman.

The actor split from actress Jenny McCarthy, his girlfriend of five years, last April and has now been seen canoodling with a woman believed to be his new girlfriend.

The 48-year-old, who has been married twice before, was seen attending Broadway show Fuerza Bruta: Look Up in New York with a young, tall, blonde female.

Jim was careful to keep his date as discreet as possible. However, the pair were spotted looking happy, relaxed and flirtatious in each others company on Wednesday.

"His assistant called the theatre to ensure security would be top-notch and no one was to approach him for pictures. They were very romantic and there was lots of hand-holding," the New York Post reported.

Two burley bodyguards protected the pair from prying eyes as they entered the theatre. (C) Cover Media
