Kylie spotted with new man in France

NEWS of Kylie Minogue's budding romance with a Spanish model has gone into overdrive after a magazine published pictures of the pair kissing and enjoying a snowboarding holiday in the French Alps.

Hello! magazine in the UK showed the 40-year-old Australian pop star holding hands and locking lips with Andres Velencoso Segura, who is 10 years her junior, in Chamonix, where they saw in the New Year.

"They arrived on 29 December and just the two of them have been staying at a private luxury chalet," a source at the resort told the tabloid.

"I saw them drinking coffee at a little cafe in town.

"They were gazing into each other's eyes and kissing all the time."

Other photos showed the pair snowboarding, which ultimately landed the Spaniard in a local doctor's surgery, The Sun reported on Wednesday.

An unnamed local told the British newspaper: "Kylie and her boyfriend went to a local surgery after he had a fall.

"He was clutching his arm but didn't look too unhappy - she was looking after him."

Minogue and her beau - who has modelling contracts with fashion houses such as Lacoste, Armani and Louis Vuitton - were photographed at a party in Paris in October but refused to confirm they were an item.
