Thom Evans has cuddled up with his new love interest Jessica Lowndes.
Posing on Instagram, the ex-Scotland rugby star can be seen cosying up to the actress and a cute dog alongside the caption: "Look at that little face," while a user commented on the photo: "What a gorgeous couple."

Friends of the two say they are 'loved up' and he's staying at her luxurious apartment in LA while she is helping him launch his acting career. Sources say he wants to be 'the next David Beckham'.

Thom, 27, and Jessica, 24, met at a juice bar in California last month when he asked for her number after he was dumped by Kelly Brook.
