IS CHAD 'OCHOCINCO' JOHNSON MOVING ON? SEEN OUT WITH ACTRESS A.J. JOHNSON

Two's company: Chad Johnson was seen having lunch with has-been actress A.J. Johnson on Monday

His divorce from Evelyn Lozada was finalized just two weeks ago but it seems Chad ‘Ochocinco’ Johnson is moving on swiftly.
The former wide receiver was seen enjoying what appeared to be a lunch date on Monday in West Hollywood.
The 34-year-old was joined by has-been actress A.J. Johnson, famed for her roles in House Party and Baby Boy.

The duo were seen dining at the Sunset Plaza and instead of facing each other, the pair opted to sit side by side.

At 49, A.J. – which stands for Adrienne-Joi – is 15 years Chad’s senior.
The two were both dressed casually for their al fresco meal, with Chad in a T-shirt and jeans and A.J. sporting a tank top, tracksuit bottoms and trucker hat.

Al fresco: The former NFL player and House Party actress dined at the Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood

It looked like the disgraced NFL star is facing some competition in the brawn stakes as A.J. showed off some very muscular arms in her white vest top.

The American footballer sipped on what appeared to be cranberry juice as well as a hot beverage, sticking his tongue out for photographers.
Chad is currently trying to get his life back on track after he was arrested last month for ‘headbutting’ his now ex-wife.

On September 21 Chad was placed on 12-months probation and ordered to attend domestic violence awareness classes after pleading 'no contest' to a misdemeanour domestic battery charge.

He avoided jail after striking a plea deal with prosecutors, and the judge ordered Chad to have no direct or indirect contact with his ex-wife, including 'no email, Twitter, or text.'
Evelyn was not in court, but the state's attorney told the judge: 'She did not wish that he be incarcerated and she was fully aware of the terms of the plea and in agreement with them.'
Chad will still have to pay restitution but the sum has yet to be decided as lawyers are 'waiting on one additional medical bill.'
His lawyer Adam Swickle said that Chad's 'no contest' plea was not an admission of guilt, and he was not convicted of any crime.
'I think what is important to note here this is resolution allows him to put this incident behind him and move on with his life, his career,' Swickle said.
The American football player's counselling sessions are expected to take three to four months and his probation could be reduced once he has finished the counselling, the lawyer added.
Chad also revealed earlier this month that he is taking anger management classes following the incident which took place on August 11 after an argument with Evelyn.
