Ross was Gibson\u2019s partner of nine years and is the mother of his youngest son. The images, captured during a night out in the Italian capital, show the Braveheart star kissing his new flame, walking with their arms around each other, and sharing intimate moments in some of the city\u2019s most romantic spots.<\/p>\n

The evening had all the ingredients of a movie date. Mel and Antonella dined at Micalusi Real Fish, a well-known seafood spot, before touring several of Rome\u2019s iconic landmarks. Later, they were seen in a silver car with Salvucci behind the wheel.<\/p>\n

Despite the clear chemistry between the two stars, those close to the What Women Want actor have weighed in following the wave of speculation. Sources close to the situation told TMZ\u00a0that Gibson is still single and claimed the photos simply captured a goodbye between \u201cgood friends\u201d before the actor returned to the United States. However, that version of events stands in stark contrast to the photographs of the pair kissing and walking locked in an embrace.<\/p>\n

\nMel Gibson\u2019s Romantic History<\/p>\n

Mel Gibson\u2019s appearance with Antonella comes during a period of personal transition. In December, news broke of his split from Rosalind Ross, a 35-year-old screenwriter and director. The two had been together for nearly a decade. They announced their breakup in a joint statement, noting that while it was sad to close that chapter of their lives, they felt \u201cblessed\u201d by their 9-year-old son, Lars, and remained committed to being the best parents possible. According to People magazine, the couple had actually ended their relationship quietly about a year before making the announcement.<\/p>\n
