Perhaps I'm being really naive, but I thought from context that this magazine must typically have a picture of a girl on the third page of each issue (which is obviously their gossip column page) that they called their "page 3 girl" (see the page number in the upper right), and Joe's ladyfriend happened to be this issue's featured woman in the gossip column.
Per Wiki after googling 'Page 3 girl':

"Page 3 was a British tabloid tradition of publishing an image of a topless female glamour model, known as a "Page 3 girl", on the newspaper's third page. Page 3 originated with The Sun in 1970 and was imitated in other red-top tabloids."
