Her father once belted out that he ‘don’t believe in modern love’ in one of his most popular hits.

But David Bowie’s daughter Lexi Jones, real name Alexandria Zahra Jones, showed that romance is alive and well as she debuted her new boyfriend on her Instagram on Monday.

The singer, 24, posted a slew of cute snaps of her and British musician Sonny James and the couple looked incredibly loved up.

In one pH๏τo, Lexi, who David had with his second wife Iman, embraced her new man as they lay outside on a picnic rug.

She wore a striking patched denim midi skirt, teaming it with a purple and lilac ʙικιɴι top.

Lexi toted a dark brown leather handbag with a tan strap, adding black leather boots and some dark sunglᴀsses.

Sonny, meanwhile, sported a black short-sleeve shirt over a beige t-shirt, completing his look with light blue faded jeans, white socks and black-rimmed shades with orange lenses. 

Another clip saw the pair performing a duet in a bar, with Lexi providing the vocals for their song Left in Ruins and her new man strumming away on an acoustic guitar.

She expressed her love for Sonny, who is an up-and-coming musician from Northamptonshire, in a short caption which read: ‘Besotted.’ 

In further snaps posted to her Stories, the rock great’s only child snuggled up to her partner as they sunbathed, while in another he took a group selfie with some friends.

Last month, Lexi, who lives in the US, uploaded a pic of the pair together which saw her wear a jazzy polychrome marbled тιԍнт-fitting top below a burnt orange ʙuттoned jacket.

She added a short white skirt, white тιԍнтs, knee-length tan boots, a dark brown leather handbag and accessorised with some bright red sunglᴀsses.

Sonny looked stylish in a beige shacket over a khaki t-shirt, completing the outfit with rolled up white trousers and some black boots.

Their new romance comes nine years after Lexi suffered the devastating loss of her father, who pᴀssed away from cancer in January 2016.

She was just 15 at the time and has since spoken candidly about how she struggled to cope in the years that followed.

‘I confused living life with surviving life’s days by filling my body’s bottomless void, drowning myself in toxins and poison,’ she wrote online last year. 

‘I involved myself in things I never expected to be part of. Situating myself in situations that contributed to the already crumbling foundation of my family eventually led to lonely isolation.

‘I’ve hurt the ones I loved most with hateful words to make them feel at least a little bit of the pain I went through every day.

‘It felt easier to label myself as a psychopath, rather than to have admitted to the lack of introspection in an effort to justify my harmful actions.

‘Growing to be such a violent and angry individual was unbelievably contradictory to the sweet and gentle little girl I used to be.’

Despite her famous name, Lexi has spent most of her teenage years and early twenties shying away from the spotlight. 

She only recently began sharing more of her life with the public, posting her artwork and, more recently, launching her music.

David was famously devoted to his daughter. In an interview with Hello! magazine after Lexi’s birth, he said: ‘It is amazing how a new child can refocus one’s direction’ (pictured together)

Her romance with Sonny marks the first time Lexi has publicly shared details about her love life. 

Friends say he has been a huge support for her as she continues to navigate life in the shadow of her father’s enormous legacy.

David was famously devoted to his daughter. In an interview with Hello! magazine after Lexi’s birth, he said: ‘It is amazing how a new child can refocus one’s direction seconds after its birth. Everything falls into a feeling of “rightness”. 

‘I have huge waves of parental love and protection pouring from me.’

Last month, Lexi released her debut album Xandri, with a sweet nod to her dad.

But it appears the pressure from the public to follow in her father’s very successful footsteps has taken a toll on the star.

Taking to Instagram, Lexi posted a heartfelt poem which gave an insight into her emotions and the pressure of being David’s child.

She penned: ‘David Bowie’s Daughter, that gets your attention, ay?’

It comes after she shared a defiant message to critics as she released a debut album – insisting she isn’t a copy of her famous father

‘I’m the daughter of a legend, but I’m more than just his name. They see the blood, they hear the sound, yet fail to see me, don’t feel the same.

‘They compare me to his heights, like I’m supposed to reach his light. But I’m not here to chase what’s already been done. By loving what I do, I feel I’ve already won.’

To finish her verses, she reminded her followers that she is ‘not a copy’ and ‘not a shadow’.

She penned: ‘I’m not trying to fill his shoes. I’m just trying to find my own peace.’
