Sharing a passionate and very public kiss with a younger man, former Neighbours star Holly Valance<\/a> appears to have moved on after her split from billionaire property developer Nick Candy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Indeed, The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Ms Valance’s new flame, Grant Gale, 34, used to work as a bodyguard at the \u00a3270 million family home in Chelsea that she shared with Mr Candy.<\/p>\n

Mr Gale, from Newport, south Wales, is a former soldier and enthusiast for combat sports.<\/p>\n

Kiss Kiss singer Ms Valance, 42, split from Mr Candy in June last year after 13 years of marriage.<\/p>\n

It emerged last week that Providence House, Mr Candy’s mansion in Chelsea, has been bought by trading firm boss Suneil Setiya for around \u00a3270 million in one of the world’s most expensive property sales.<\/p>\n

It is understood Mr Gale was part of a security team that protected Mr Candy, Ms Valance and their two children.<\/p>\n

Rumours of a romantic relationship between Ms Valance and far-Right thug Tommy Robinson caused concern among friends after they were spotted on a private trip last year.<\/p>\n

But the spark with Mr Gale appears to be genuine as they enjoyed a coffee and a chat on a bench in a London park last week.<\/p>\n
