Vanessa and the love coach
TV presenter’s dinner out with ‘Tinder’s most fancied bloke’
VANESSA Feltz has been out to dinner with a man dubbed Tinder’s most fancied man.
Radio DJ and TV host Vanessa, 62, enjoyed a meal for two with love coach Stefan-pierre Tomlin, 33.
They chatted for hours and appeared happy in each other’s company as they enjoyed a three-course meal at Sheesh in London’s Mayfair.
The pair have been seen at events together in the past, and posed for photos at the red carpet premiere for TV series The Red King two weeks ago.
And they appear to have now grown closer as they did not leave until 11pm, when they hugged before a smiling Vanessa got into her car.
Vanessa may have been picking up dating advice from Stefan-pierre, who shot to fame in 2017 as “Mr Tinder” after receiving 14,600 right-swipes on the dating app. After he hit the headlines, he said he was single and struggling to find a long-term relationship.
Last year, he said: “I’m discovering it’s hard for girls to see me for who I am. They like the idea of me but they don’t realise what my lifestyle entails.
“Having the name Mr Tinder isn’t ideal for a girl looking for Mr Right.”
He has also appeared on This Morning discussing how he helps men to find love and has said: “It brings me immense joy to coach individuals through genuine love relationships.”
In the past 12 months,
Vanessa has also found it difficult when looking for love.
Last year, she claimed she had been out for 195 nights in a row since splitting from long-term partner Ben Ofoedu in February last year as she had fun and looked for love again.
In August, she said: “I want to fall in love and be swept off my feet. Going out has been my self-care. I don’t like the idea of being in an empty house and not seeing anyone.”
She appeared on E4’s Celebs Go Dating but had no luck, and was criticised for appearing to lash out at dating expert Anna Williamson.
In a
national newspaper column, Feltz compared her experience on the show to her appearance on the first series of Celebrity Big Brother in 2001.
She wrote: “With hours of such programming under my belt, you’d think I’d have got the hang of it by now.
“Wrong! I seem to have forgotten my own maxim: ‘If you don’t want them to show it, don’t do it’. The audience sees what it sees and takes this lighthearted puffery with intense seriousness.”
Yesterday, the Mirror revealed her former fiance Ben, 51, is engaged after a three-month whirlwind romance with Precious Muir, 33.
Ben and Vanessa’s 17-year relationship ended last year over his infidelity.
Earlier this month, Vanessa told This Morning: “It’s very hard to throw away a long-term relationship when there’s cheating involved.”
