JAMES Argent has been spotted passionately snogging former Miss Sweden Nicoline Artursson, as they enjoyed a steamy sea clinch.
Nicoline, who was Miss Sweden in 2011, appeared lost in the moment and unaware of their surroundings as they locked lips in the water, while spending time together in St. Tropez.
Sources have revealed that Towie legend James whisked his new girlfriend away for a lavish long weekend, with the pair enjoying luxury accommodations at one of the resort’s exclusive spots Indie Beach at Plague de Pampelonne.
And they certainly appeared to be making the most of their time away, as James, 36, wrapped his arms around the beauty.
At one point, the couple could be seen laughing away amongst the waves, as Nicoline, 31, threw her head back in delight and Arg pulled her towards him.
In another snap, the stunning Swedish model put her arms around her beau as he went in for a kiss.

James and Nicoline were seen walking across the beach together too, with former Miss Sweden showing off her sensational figure in a pink floral bikini with her wet hair cascading down her back.
After their sea snogs, the couple popped their clothes back on and linked arms.
Nicoline looked stunning in a long floaty blue beach dress, while Arg donned a cool blue shirt and shorts.
It’s the first time that Arg has been linked to a girl since his ex, Stella Turian.
Earlier this year, Arg revealed he was "lonely and struggling" after splitting from Stella.
It was revealed in November that Towie star James and his 19-year-old actress girlfriend had gone their separate ways after a year together.

Arg has confessed he found he hard to adjust to single life and particularly struggled on Valentine's Day this year.
He told the My Dirty Laundry podcast: "I'm in a really good place. Everything in my life is perfect, apart from my love life.
"It would be nice if that would change. I'll be completely honest, this year I really struggled on Valentine's Day."
He added: "I remember, I woke up and thought, I am not going to look at social media.
"It's not that I'm heartbroken or upset, but just because I knew it's not going to make me feel great because I didn't have a Valentine, I don't have a girlfriend."
James’ new lady can be found posting on social media to her 21,000 followers.
The blonde fashion model often shows off her luxury lifestyle – from trips to posh eateries, to skiing and hotel stays.
