Expect to see supermodel Chanel Iman at plenty of Patriots games this coming season.

The Victoria’s Secret Angel is dating New England defensive tackle Davon Godchaux amid her divorce from Giants star Sterling Shepard.

Iman went public with the relationship over the weekend, posting PDA photos with Godchaux at Revolve Festival during Coachella.

The 6-foot-3, 311-pound nose tackle was a fifth-round pick (178th overall) by the Dolphins in the 2017 NFL Draft but last month signed a two-year deal with the Patriots as an unrestricted free agent that is reportedly worth up to $16 million, with $9 million fully guaranteed.

It’s unclear when and how Iman, 31, and Godchaux, 27, got together, but it’s obvious the new couple has a lot in common. For one, the model and LSU product are both parents.

Iman and Shepard share two daughters, Cali Clay, 3, and 2-year-old Cassie Snow. Godchaux has a son from a previous relationship, Davon Godchaux II, who turns seven in October.

Godchaux, like Iman, is also a fashion and sneaker fanatic. His Instagram includes various posts showing off his designer looks — including looks and accessories by Gucci, Balenciaga, Celine and Dior. Godchaux — who regularly shares Instagram photos of his son sporting designer outfits — often attends fashion shows and other events. Iman, meanwhile, has ruled the runways through the years, walking for the aforementioned designers, as well as Versace and Tom Ford.

Godchaux majored in sports management at LSU, where he started 26 games for the Tigers over three seasons. His hometown of Plaquemine, La., honored him in 2017 by making May 9th Davon Godchaux Day.
