Wife Bianca watches him from the beach while dad-of-two Austin, 28, takes a dip in the ocean.

Wearing matching yellow swimming trunks and bathing suit, the pair are also seen walking hand in hand along the sand.

The searing 25 degree Caribbean heat is just what the doctor ordered for injury-prone Austin, who scored seven goals this season.

A hamstring KO kept the former QPR hitman out of action for almost three months of the campaign but he returned in March to help Southampton beat the drop.

The Sun on Sunday revealed Austin had a two-month fling with a hairdresser behind Bianca's back.

Bianca, 27, accused him of cheating in a tweet last June - but later said it was over a game of Monopoly.

Austin had a relationship with fitness fanatic hairdresser Rissy Gannon in February 2016.

Bianca tore into her love rival in a searing "customer review" on Facebook, in which she called her a "dirty slag".

The fling lasted two months and Rissy believed Austin and Bianca were broken up.

But she began receiving messages from Bianca, who has been with Austin for ten years.

Heartbroken Bianca slammed Rissy in a customer review, accusing her of sleeping with her husband and passing STIs.

Rissy declined to comment when approached by The Sun on Sunday.
