Lewis Burton and Lottie Tomlinson’s romance is hotting up in Ibiza.
The pair confirmed their relationship this week after they were pictured kissing following a tense row on holiday.
However, it seems that they are over their tiff, as they were pictured locking lips while sharing drinks with friends.
Lottie, 22, was seen wrapping her arms around the tennis coach as they shared a kiss, with the pair only having eyes for each other despite sitting at a table with others.
Lottie – the younger sister of One Direction star Louis Tomlinson – wore a white silk mini-dress and styled her hair in a bun, while Lewis, 28, wore a polo shirt with shorts and a baseball cap.
Before they headed to the bar, the new couple were seen leaving their accommodation together, with Lewis throwing an arm around the model’s shoulders.
And the closeness didn’t stop on date night, as Lewis and Lottie were seen cuddling up on a sunbed.
They were seen looking at pictures on Lewis’s phone, before being brought cocktails as they chilled poolside.
The romance comes six months after the death of Caroline Flack, who was in a relationship with Lewis at the time of her passing.
It is believed Burton and Tomlinson bonded over the losses they had experienced; Lewis started dating Caroline six months before she took her own life, while last year, Lottie’s 18-year-old sister Félicité died from an accidental overdose.
Her mother Johannah died in December 2016, after battling leukeamia.
Lewis and Lottie spent time together at a party in May at stylist Lou Teasdale’s house to mark three months’s since Caroline’s death – Lou was One Direction’s stylist, and was the last person to see Caroline alive.
A source told Mail Online: ‘They have been meeting up in secret for weeks but their newfound friendship hasn’t gone unnoticed by mutual pals.
‘Not all of Caroline’s friends are happy with how the situation appears to be developing but can understand that both Lottie and Lewis have been there for each other as a shoulder to cry on.’
The couple’s trip to Ibiza comes two weeks after an inquest heard that Flack left a note for her boyfriend before taking her own life in February.
A handwritten note found at the scene read: ‘I hope me and Lewis can one day find harmony.’
The Love Island host’s death was ruled a suicide.
Lewis did not comment on the inquest, but remembered his late girlfriend a month on from her death in March.
He wrote on Instagram: ‘It’s already been a month I love and miss you so much, I never thought that one day I will never be able to see or speak to you again ?
‘I wake up and think you’re going to be laying next to me or you’re going to call me in a minute. It just doesn’t seem real. I wish I could give you a kiss and a cuddle and say everything is going to be ok. I am so grateful I met you I just want to make you proud.’
