Zoe, 54, was spotted in the VIP Hospitality area on Worthy Farm on Thursday afternoon.
An onlooker said: 'Zoe is down at Glastonbury as a punter and has brought her new boyfriend along for the ride.
'They seemed blissfully happy and were strolling along holding hands.
'She was really smiling at him as they walked along and he was very protective of Zoe and put his hand across her back.
'People were doing double takes at her bloke though because he looks a lot like Fatboy. It's so great to see Zoe smiling again.'
Last month Zoe hinted she had met someone new amid rumours of a reconciliation with Fatboy - real name Norman Cook.
During an interview with Roisin Conaty, Zoe mentioned 'my fella' as they were chatting between songs.
This is Zoe's first serious relationship since the end of her five-year relationship with Michael Reed in 2023.

Bristol in Pictures: Bristol Sounds and Gromit Unleashed
While the eyes of the world may be on Glastonbury, the music has not stopped in our city, with Bristol Sounds welcoming large crowds to the harbourside this Unleashed 3 is almost here, and there is a glamorous new show at Bristol Old of music, there was a special Loyle Carner gig at the O2 academy on Wednesday night, and a Bristol orchestra has been given an award. Tuned in: Bristol Sounds has seen Supergrass, Kaiser Chiefs, Texas and Fratellis play on the harbourside. The annual week of concerts comes to an end with Olly Murs later. One more sleep: The 53 sculptures which will form the Gromit Unleashed 3 trail will be in place across the city on Monday. Aardman's Nick Park joined dozens of local school pupils to celebrate the imminent launch at an event on the Harbourside on Wednesday. "It's just going to light up Bristol for the summer," he said. Framed: Bristol Museum and Art Gallery staff took an empty frame up to the gorge to recreate the scene painted by JMW Turner when he was just 17 in 1792. A fundraising campaign is under way to raise the money needed to bring the artwork back to its home city. Midweek music: Loyle Carner performed a gig at the O2 Academy on Wednesday to O2 and Virgin Media customers. Here today, gone tomorrow: Bristol City Council says it will be removing the many "love locks" from Pero's Bridge before the harbour festival, saying they collectively weigh an estimated three tonnes. Sparkling: The family of Henry Cyril Paget, one of the world's wealthiest men, tried to destroy all traces of him after he died, erasing his diamond frocks, lilac-dyed poodles and unsuccessful plays from history. Luckily the show How to Win Against History, on at Bristol Old Vic until mid July, has revived his outrageous life story. Pilton pilgrims: Bristol feels the presence of the Glastonbury Festival, whether it be the many traders from the city who set up there, or the queue (above) to get the bus down to Pilton. Power of music: Bristol's own Dovetail Orchestra has been named the UK's first ever Orchestra of Sanctuary. The group was set up to be a welcoming place for asylum seekers and refugees, using music as a way of connecting people. Pretty in pink: Luke Jerram's latest eyecatching work saw the Bristol artist thread a 1km (0.6 miles) long piece of magenta ribbon around the exterior of the RWA for a piece called Negotiating Space. One team: Finance software company Xledger has announced it will once again support Bristol Bears Women as main and also front-of-shirt sponsor. It extends a relationship with Bristol Sport going back to 2019. Medical skills: A team of Ukrainian doctors has been visiting the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children this month, learning skills they can take back and use in their home country to help child victims of the ongoing conflict. Award winners: Bristol's St Peter's Hospice was named Outstanding Charity Retailer at the 2025 Charity Retail Association Awards. The hospice, which operates more than 40 shops across the city and wider area, was recognised for its strong community engagement and sustainable practices. It was all yellow: Pedestrians and cyclists have been celebrating as the crossing known as the Banana Bridge has reopened after more than £1.4m in repairs (and a nice new paint job).

The gig features dozens of musicians from the industry, who will take to the stage throughout the day, however, the most exciting part is set to be when the original Black Sabbath reunite to perform together for the first time in 20 will mark the final time Osbourne plays alongside his bandmates, nearly six decades after the band formed in 1968, with the original four all growing up within a few streets of each other and a stone's throw from the Aston stadium.

Mr Murals added that the band's visit had left him "on cloud nine" and said he needed to continue painting as the work was yet to be finished.
