Two months after announcing her split from husband Alex Reid, Katie Price appears to have a new man in her life. The 32-year-old mum-of-three has been enjoying the company of handsome Argentine model Leandro Penna.The couple hit it off when they were introduced at Elton John's post-Oscars bash and immediately sparked reports of a romance when they were photographed embracing while waiting for their car outside.Keen to show off her 25-year-old companion, Katie uploaded a picture to her Twitter account the next morning (below) with the caption: "Isn't he pretty? Such a cute boy."
