TABLOID: GINGRICH 'LIVING' WITH YOUNG CONGRESSIONAL AIDE; PICTURE OF DUO HOLDING HANDS

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich has been romantically linked with a young congressional aide, a tabloid will report next week.

Just weeks after beginning divorce proceedings, Gingrich, 56, has been photographed with the woman, 33, walking hand-in-hand, from his apartment to a restaurant.

STAR magazine's Richard Gooding is set to report that Gingrich has been linked with the woman since 1995 -- when he became speaker.

The NEW YORK DAILY NEWS is considering a Page One placement of the story, and photo, for Thursday editions, according to newspaper sources.

"If he was secretly dating her during Clinton's impeachment, and this is why he ultimately left congress, we've got a great story," one DAILY NEWS source explained when asked about the news value of Gingrich's romantic life.

Gingrich was asked about the relationship as he walked hand-in-hand with the woman to dinner one night last week, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Gingrich brushed off the reporter and said: "No questions."

The WASHINGTON POST was been hot on Gingrich for more than a month, according to newsroom insiders, but the paper was holding off trying to find a rationale to run the story.

The woman was first named in a September '95 VANITY FAIR piece by Gail Sheehy as his "frequent breakfast companion."
