Damian Lewis dating Alison Mosshart year after losing wife Helen McCrory

Damian Lewis has found happiness again a year after losing his wife Helen McCrory to cancer.

Homeland actor Damian Lewis and rocker Alison Mosshart were spotted getting close to one another at a private members club party. The pair have been photographed together in public on multiple occasions including a closed display at The House of KOKO's summer event.

Smiling towards the camera in one shot, Alison can be seen with her arm wrapped around Damian's shoulder. The pair were joined by Alison's bandmate Jamie Hince, who used to be married to Kate Moss, as well as Ellie Goulding, singer Dionne Bromfield and film director Darren Strowger.

The pair were also photographed at an event for London's National Gallery and this week were pictured at the British Formula One Grand Prix at Silverstone, also attended by Tom Cruise, Rylan Clark and other celebs, the Mirror reported.

Last April Liverpool fan Damian was left distraught after the passing of his wife, Helen McCrory, who he shares two sons with. The pair's glam outing comes as Alison's mum Vivian gave the relationship her seal of approval.

Speaking to Mail Online, Alison's mum said: "They have mutual friends. I don't know exactly how they met but I'm fine with it. If she's happy, we are happy. I'm yet to meet him but certainly, I'd like to."

Alison's mother said she knew of Damian's tragic loss but wasn't up to date on his acting career. She added: "I think I've seen Billions a couple of times but normally we just watch movies. I heard he has a new show coming out but I haven't seen any of it."

Damian and Peaky Blinders actress Helen got married in 2007, and he paid a powerful tribute to his wife two days after news of her devastating death from breast cancer, was announced. Announcing the death on Twitter, Damian stated that she had died "peacefully at home, surrounded by a wave of love from friends and family".

He added: "She died as she lived. Fearlessly. God we love her and know how lucky we are to have had her in our lives. She blazed so brightly. Go now, Little One, into the air, and thank you."
