Kylie Minogue and partner Andres Velencoso have quashed rumours of a love split with a public show of unity.

The couple, who have been in a relationship for 18 months, were pictured smiling yesterday as they walked hand-in-hand at New York's JFK airport following a flight.

Earlier this week, a report claimed that the pair's romance was on the rocks following a heated row. However, Minogue later rubbished the speculation.

Writing on Twitter yesterday, she said: "Wowza... love life rumours have gone mad!!!! Please pay no attention peeps."

Meanwhile, a source told The Mirror: "They were shocked when the story came out. The two couldn't be any closer. They were sincerely pissed off and couldn't work out where this story had come from."

Minogue is currently promoting her forthcoming eleventh album Aphrodite.
