August 5, 2015

Seal and Erica Packer confirmed relationship rumours on Tuesday after they were spotted sharing a kiss during their European holiday. The new couple made no secret of their romance and put on a tactile display as their luxury yacht moored in Formentera in Spain.

Rumours first abounded that the Kiss From A Rose singer was dating Erica last week after they were spotted holidaying together in Positano, Italy. They are joined by Erica's three children – Indigo, seven, Jackson Lloyd, five, and Emmanuelle Sheelagh, two – and a group of friends as they travel around Europe on the enviable holiday.

Seal has confirmed romance rumours with Erica Packer

It appears the getaway has brought Seal – real name Olusegun Olumide Adeola – and 38-year-old Erica closer together judging by the public display of affection they gave, kissing and hugging on the deck of their boat.

Erica is the ex-wife of billionaire businessman James Packer, who is currently dating Hero songstress Mariah Carey. The couple went public with their romance in June after being introduced by mutual friend, film-maker Brett Ratner.

James was previously linked to Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr, while Erica – who he was married to for six years – was last rumoured to be dating Miranda's ex Orlando Bloom in 2014.

However Orlando spoke out to deny the rumours in September, admitting that his relationship with Erica might look a little "odd".

"I've known Erica since I was 19 back in London," Orlando told Australia's Daily Telegraph. "I've known Erica before she was married to James, when she was married to James and afterwards, and we're all mates."

He added: "It probably looks a little odd, but we are all mates. We have known each other for a long time."

Meanwhile Seal's ex Heidi Klum has recently enjoyed a holiday in Italy with her boyfriend Vito Schnabel. The model shared a sweet photo of herself and her art dealer love on Instagram in celebration of his 29th birthday last week.
