James Argent puckers up to a teenager Italian actress 16 years his junior as he appears to confirmed his new romance on the Costa del Sol.
The TOWIE legend, 34, and film star Stella Turian were seen kissing for the first time in Marbella.
The slimmed-down reality TV favourite couldn't stop smiling as he appeared relaxed and happy with the talented 18-year-old.
Coy James recently revealed he had an "exciting" new lady in his life - but was staying tight lipped.
It's fair to say that's not the case any more as he enjoyed getting close while wearing white shorts and a green t-shirt in the sun.
Stella wore a white skirt and strapless black bikini top as the up-and-coming actress, who recently appeared in Infiniti, was recently snapped at the Venice film festival.
James says he feels he is in his place for years as he enjoys his break.
He has spent the summer performing at his pal Elliot Wright's trendy restaurant Olivia's La Cala.
Appearing on GB News recently, he opened up about his love life and said earlier this summer he is keen to see where it is heading.
Speaking in July, he said: “I feel more confident and I feel like I'm ready to potentially meet someone, like there was someone I've met recently who's lovely, but she lives abroad."
"We are in contact and stuff but I'm literally like from now till the very end of August, I don't really have a day off to be honest with you.
“So we're gonna carry on talking and hopefully we might see each other, we'll plan something maybe at the end of the summer, maybe September time, something like that."
In April 2021, Arg underwent a sleeve gastrectomy procedure, after his weight reached 27 stone, and he's now looking much slimmer and revealed he's a lot happier.
Now looking fantastic, he said he doesn't want to get "too complacent" after making to shift 14 stone.
Appearing on Lorraine, he said: "At the moment I'm going to sleep excited for the next day and I'm waking up positive and full of energy, and just life's really good at the moment."
Lorraine then said: "I feel as if you are probably in a really, really good, happy place," as Arg replied: "I am, I genuinely am."
