Kylie whisks lover away for Alpine break

Kylie Minogue has treated her new toyboy lover to a snowboarding holiday in the Alps.

The singer whisked model Andres Velencoso Segura, 30, away for a New Year's break in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc.

"They are really smitten with each other. It's lovely to see Kylie so happy," a source told the Daily Record.

"Kylie loves snowboarding and is pretty proficient. Andres has never been before - it's a mark of how much he likes her that he was prepared to go on holiday and do a sport he hadn't really done before."

The star reportedly began dating the Spanish model in October after dismissing rumours that she was getting back together with ex-boyfriend Olivier Martinez.

Kylie releases her new remix album Boombox today.
