Laura Harrier packed on the PDA with her new man during Venice Film Festival months after her split from her ex-fiancé Sam Jarou.
The American actress and model, 35, and fashion consultant Sam reportedly separated earlier this year after more than four years together.
And in a sign she has now moved on, Laura was reportedly spotted enjoying a very cosy smoke break with art dealer Helly Nahmad in Venice on Saturday.
It is said the pair made their first public appearance together at a late-night dinner during the Venice Film Festival, where they were joined by model Joan Smalls.
Laura and Helly reportedly snuck outside at around 11pm for a smoke break, where they appeared to share a kiss before heading back inside together.
The Spider-Man: Homecoming oozed glamour for the date night, wearing a nude sheer cowl-neck chiffon slip dress.

Helly is a high-profile art dealer known to run in Hollywood’s inner circles.
DailyMail has contacted representatives for Laura for comment.
Laura and her ex Sam had appeared loved-up in social media posts until as recently as January.
But they called time on their relationship, according to US Magazine, earlier this year after confirming their engagement in 2022.
A source told the publication that Laura and Sam’s break-up was ‘amicable’ and they have ‘remained friends’ since parting ways.
The split comes just a matter of months after Laura made headlines when she was videoed with American actor Shameik Moore, leading to speculation that the pair could have sparked a romance.
Shameik had posted a video of him and and Laura in December captioned ‘coming soon’.
The BlacKklansman actress took to her social media to hit back at the post, however, claiming it ‘annoyed her’.

In a now-deleted TikTok, she said: ‘I keep seeing all these videos that I’m being tagged in with another actor, and people speculating what that is. It’s really annoying me because I’m literally engaged, and that’s important to me.
‘I’m in Hollywood, I get it. People do PR stunts, whatever. People like to get attention.’
Sam and Laura met in 2019 but kept their relationship under wraps until 2021, when they were spotted kissing in Monaco.
In September of that year, Laura announced the pair were engaged after a ‘simple and sweet’ proposal in Paris.
Speaking about her engagement, Laura said she had found ‘peace and calm’ with Sam, who she called ‘the one’.
‘It was really simple (the proposal),’ she told Cosmopolitan.
‘I never wanted one of those big showy public engagements. that’s just not my personality.
In response to how she knew that he was the one for the ultimate collaboration, she answered: ‘The cliché of when you know, you know. I never really believed it until that happened to me.
‘It’s a funny feeling when you just find peace and calm.

‘I also really do believe that you need to be ready within yourself before you can find somebody else to be with, which I also always thought was a cliché until I felt secure within myself and the person I am and where I’m at in life.’
Harrier first rose to fame at the age of 17 when she was discovered by a location scout in her hometown of Chicago, Illinois.
In 2017, she landed her first breakout role alongside British actor Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Homecoming, in which she played his character’s love interest.
She also made waves in 2018’s BlacKkKlansman, in which she played the role of civil rights activist Patrice Dumas. The role earned her a Black Reel Award and a SAG Award nomination.
Harrier is also an ambassador for luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Calvin Klein and Boss.
