Wrapped up in a black cardigan over matching sweatpants, the Hurt So Good hitmaker kept warm during the chilly morning stroll. 

His lady love wore a white scoop-neck T-shirt, with some white sweatpants and donned a patterned scarf around her neck. 

Last year, John was linked to celebrity skin care specialist Jamie Sue Sherrill, 50, known as Nurse Jamie, professionally.

The mom of three is known for her famous clients including Jessica Alba, and the Kardashian sisters.

They were first reported to be a couple in April but split in January 2021. 

John previously dated Meg Ryan, 59, but ended their engagement because he reportedly ‘didn’t want to get married again’. 

They split in 2019 and it was claimed their romance came to an end after John realized he didn’t want to tie the knot again, as he’s already been married three times. 

A source told People magazine: ‘He didn’t want to get married again. He loves her, but marriage never seemed to be a part of it. It’s unclear how important a marriage was to Meg. 

Split: Last year, John was linked to celebrity skin care specialist Jamie Sue Sherrill, 50, also known as Nurse Jamie, but they broke up in January 2021

‘But they spent a lot of time together and it’s too bad they split. They really got along so well together.’

John and Meg had been together on and off for eight years, with a brief split in 2014 when the musician dated Christie Brinkley.

They reconciled and got engaged back in November 2018 before calling it quits in November 2019. 

The Jack and Diane singer has previously been married to Priscilla Esterline from 1970 to 1981, Victoria Granucci from 1981 to 1989, and Elaine Irwin from 1992 to 2011.

John is father to five children from his previous relationships; Michelle, 50, Teddi, 39, Justice, 36, Hud, 27, Speck, 26.
