The sweet Instagram Story marked the first time Maloney, 37, has posted a photo with Martin, 41, since revealing she had a boyfriend last month.

Maloney raved about how “in love” she was with “the most wonderful person” during an Oct. 16 episode of her “Disrespectfully” podcast.

“He just makes me feel really special, and he’s really special, and yeah, I’m just really, really happy,” she gushed at the time.

Page Six confirmed shortly after the revelation that Maloney was dating Martin.

A source told us at the time that they met through mutual friends and “bonded” over their love for emo music and careers in hospitality.

“Katie loves the emo music scene and has been a fan and friend of Nick’s band for some time,” the insider told us last month. “While the pair started out as friends, things took a turn this past summer in August, and their relationship developed really quickly.”

Maloney’s ex-husband, Tom Schwartz, and her on-again, off-again friend Scheana Shay, also confirmed the relationship in the weeks following.

Shay shared on her “Scheananigans” podcast last month that she met Martin at a music festival his band was playing at and raved that “he could not have been nicer.”

“He was just such a sweet guy,” Shay, 39, said. “I was glad I got to see her, meet him, see the band and overall it was a very fun weekend.”

Meanwhile, Schwartz, 42, told Page Six that he had “not met [Maloney’s] new man” yet, but that he loves to “see her just thriving.”

“I’m so happy for her,” he told Page Six at Lisa Vanderpump’s annual Vanderpump Dog Foundation Gala in Beverly Hills last weekend. “I mean it, I love to see her happy.”

Maloney and Schwartz tied the knot in 2016 after dating for six years, but they got divorced in 2022.
