Mikayla Nogueira is highlighting her new boyfriend.

Two months after she announced her split from husband Cody Hawken, the influencer hard-launched her new boyfriend—who she previously confirmed was her high school sweetheart—in a post on Instagram.

“Since yall wanna expose my relationship online (which I knew would happen) I will participate,” Mikayla wrote in the April 8 post, which featured several photos of the couple together. “Now let me not f–k this up.”

“Yes he was my bf in high school and we reconnected,” she continued. “We are taking it slow and please be nice to him, he’s an extremely kind soul.”

Though the 27-year-old noted that “he won’t be in much of my content,” she said it was important to share photos of her man—whose name she didn’t share—so everyone would “know he exists.”

And in a final note, Mikayla issued a warning to her followers who were trolling her boyfriend’s appearance.

“Also stop trying to find ‘bad’ pictures of him and discuss his looks. Yall are the worst,” she wrote. “He’s so so handsome.”

To prove her point, Mikayla included seven photos of her with her new man. The first pic featured them in a loving embrace and smiling for the camera.

Another photo, which appeared to be snapped while they were at a restaurant, showed them smiling as they held up their drinks. There was also a mirror selfie of the couple, as well as several shots of them smiling side-by-side.

Mikayla also gave her man his moment in the spotlight with two solo shots, including one adorable pic of him sitting next to a dog holding up its paws. 

The slideshow likely came as a surprise to fans, considering it was just two weeks ago when Mikayla confirmed she was dating her high school sweetheart—but said she had no intentions of sharing his identity.

"I personally think I'll keep my relationship offline," said the makeup mogul, who announced her split from Cody in February after two years of marriage. "I'm gonna talk about it in videos like this, but I'm not gonna show him. You let me do what I need to do. I've made a lot of mistakes in my previous relationship."

"Maybe I'll show him eventually, but not for a really long time," she continued. "If you see us out in public or see videos of us, that's fine. That has nothing to do with me. But on my own personal page, I would prefer not to show him."

And though she’s still keeping some details private, including how they reconnected, Mikayla was clear about one thing: she is "so f--king happy.”

"I have never been this happy in a relationship in my life," the Point of View Beauty founder emphasized. "I've learned it's a lot more than just happiness. This man makes my central nervous system so calm. I feel so at peace. He's extremely supportive of me. I've never been treated this way in a relationship in my entire life."
