PROWLING FOR YOUNG LOVE!

Wants one final fling at age 78

-

POP icon Diana Ross swore off men years ago, but now at 78, the Baby Love singer’s looking good and prowling for a toyboy and a sizzling final fling, insiders say.

The twice-divorced diva is pumped to meet some eligible younger men after her showstoppi­ng turn at Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee June 4 — her first performanc­e in 15 years, sources dish.

“She’s kept herself in good shape, as her Jubilee concert proved,” spills an insider. “She’s recently added a list of beauty rituals to glam up — new clothes, switching up her exercise program, beauty treatments and a few nip/ tucks, though she’d never admit it.

“Friends have been urging her to get out there again, and she’s feeling it too.”

The Endless Love singer hasn’t had a serious romance since her 2000 divorce from second hubby Arne Naess Jr., a Norwegian businessma­n, who died at 66 in a 2004 mountainee­ring accident.

Arne was dad of her sons Ross, 34, and Evan, 33, so Diana took the tragedy hard.

The former Supremes queen’s

love life has always been rocky. She divorced music exec Robert Ellis Silberstei­n, father of her daughters Tracee, 49, and Chudney, 46, in 1977 after marrying him while pregnant with Motown mogul Berry Gordy’s daughter Rhonda, now 50.

“Up until now, Diana never thought much about dating because she had her kids and her grandkids and her life seemed full,” tattles the insider. “Now she’s looking for a sexy younger man, someone who can check all the boxes for her.

“She’s got a lot of prospects already and it won’t be long before she’s hooked one!”
