James Argent packed on the PDA with stunning girlfriend Nicoline Artursson as they enjoyed a romantic beach day amid their holiday to Barbados.
The former TOWIE star, 37, couldn’t keep his hands off the Swedish model, 31, as they locked lips before strolling arm-in-arm along the sand.
The couple, who’ve been dating for around nine months, looked happier than ever as they frolicked at the beach amid their stay at the luxury Sandy Lane hotel.

Meanwhile, Nicoline flaunted her incredible figure in a bright pink bikini as she strolled alongside her man.
The pair looked to be having the time of their life as they larked about in the azure waters, with Nicoline at one point climbing on to the singer’s shoulders.

‘And seeing his good friend Mark Wright and his wife Michelle Keegan so happy and expecting their first baby, it’s just a lovely sign to Arg of what his happy future might hold.’
James’ representatives replied with ‘no comment’ when approached by MailOnline.
The star is also ready to settle down and have children.
Speaking to OK! Magazine in their first joint interview, James and Nicoline revealed that it was love at first sight for the pair after they bumped into each other outside a Spanish supermarket.
And since that fateful meeting, Nicoline moved to the UK and has now moved into Arg’s Essex home.
Describing the moment they met, James revealed he thought Nicoline was out of his league but decided he had nothing to lose.
He said: ‘I was walking to my gig at Elliott Wright’s restaurant in Marbella.
‘All of a sudden I see this woman coming towards me. I was like, ‘Wow, she’s beautiful.’ She was just in her gym clothes, wearing no make-up. She’d actually just fed a stray cat.’
And after summoning up the courage, James asked her out.

Nicole described James as a handsome man with a big smile, before adding that he makes her laugh, and it was these traits that helped cement their relationship.
James and Nicoline went on their first date a week later, where James explained about his past addiction issues and his weight loss, and the couple were so engrossed in one another that they forgot to order anything to eat.
Despite James’s confession about his seven-year drug addiction which saw him go through a near-fatal overdose, a hospitalisation and a stint on rehab, the model was unfazed.
He explained: ‘I’ve been through a lot over the years. I’ve been to rehab, I’ve had to get help. I also had to explain that I used to be morbidly obese, I was a big guy and I’ve lost a lot of weight. I’ve had an operation which has helped with my portion control. I have to eat little and often.
‘It was probably quite a lot to take in, but she was really cool. She was fine about everything. Being open and honest and putting your cards on the table from the start is so important.’
And Nicoline echoed James adding that the pair had decided to be completely open with each other from the start.
