Cameron Diaz has reportedly started dating Essex-born model Paul Sculfor.

Sculfor, whose previous girlfriends include Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Snowdon, was spotted with Diaz in Santa Monica on Sunday.

The pair dined at Italian restaurant Giogio Baldi, reports The Sun.

A source said: "They arrived at about 7.30pm looking very cosy. In the restaurant they were very touchy feely. She was being really flirty.

"She was laughing ridiculously loudly at his jokes and throwing her head back like something out of one of her rom-coms.

"She also had her shirt undone very low - which didn’t escape his attention."

Diaz was romantically linked with P. Diddy earlier this week.
