Vanessa Feltz could be set for a new romance as she was spotted enjoying an intimate dinner date last week with model and love coach Stefan Pierre Tomlin.
However, as the TalkTV presenter grows closer to Stefan Pierre, who was once dubbed “the most swiped-right man on Tinder”, pals have expressed their worry that Vanessa may get hurt again, a source has told new.
“It’s very early days for Vanessa and her new man, but her friends are encouraging her to be cautious. It’s no secret that he likes the limelight – being the most swiped man on Tinder speaks for itself – and they’re telling her to take everything with a pinch of salt,” claimed the source.
Vanessa, 62, has been single for just over a year, after suffering a very public and painful split from her partner of 17 years, singer Ben Ofoedu. The couple parted ways after Vanessa learned of his infidelity, something that Ben has publicly apologised for.
Embracing single life with gusto, Vanessa has been hitting the town and hasn’t shied away from dating – even appearing on Celebs Go Datinglast year. But she struggled to find Mr Right on the E4 show.
“I’ve been dating, but I haven’t found anybody yet. I’m trying my best, it’s not without effort,” she told new in February. Now, Vanessa has met Stefan, who is 29 years her junior and rose to prominence in 2017 as “Mr Tinder” after bagging 14,600 right-swipes on the dating app.
Explaining Vanessa needs to “keep her guard up” if they continue dating, the source claimed, “Vanessa and Stefan Pierre didn’t meet on Tinder or online dating – they met at a showbiz bash and hit it off then. It’s still early days and that’s why her friends are telling her to be careful.
“They don’t want her to get her heart broken again in case he’s not in it for the right reasons. They want her to keep her guard up, but they also know Vanessa isn’t silly and she just wants to have fun.
“Stefan is a really nice guy but Vanessa’s friends are just worried after her previous heartache. They want her to be cautious about rushing into things. He treats her well but they’re urging her to take things slow.”
Although the broadcaster has thrown herself into the dating scene, it has still been a tough time for her moving on from
